Look at your wrists
And think of the risk
Your father has taken to save you
Look at your feet
And think of the blood
That spilt for your sake
Picture the cross weighing down on his back
As he carried our sins up that hill
Imagine the pain that wore down his body
As darkness and death overtook the Son
Do not forget, my child
For he has done this for you
Be not afraid, young one
For the story is not over yet
They lifted His body from the cross
And carried Him to a cave
They wrapped the Savior in white cloth
And sealed Him in three days
Soldiers watched
Not far from there
As the events unkown occurred
Deep within the cave, my friend
The Savior had returned
Think of the boulder
Rolling away
All on its lonesome
Imagine the light
That poured from the cave
On that Easter Sunday
Imagine the voices from Heaven singing
"Glory! Glory to God!
Go back to the village
And spread the word!
For JESUS is alive!"
Just think, my friend, of the sacrifice
That the father had to make
Just think, dear one, of His love for us
He did it for our sake
Look at your wrists
And think of the risk
Jesus took for us
Look at your feet
And think of His blood
That spilt for our sake
He put His life on the line for us
He did it for our sake

Very strong, very encouraging, I thought it was fantastic.

I think that this is strong and well written. It is very telly but when dealing with this subject I really don't see that it can be done without that.

Very nice, I enjoyed reading this one. Perhaps a few words could be removed, though it is your choice. Good piece.

I found this piece a little preachy, and somewhat overworked--but I am a Jew after all.

I can't stand these Christians, always bearing their cross in mind-- but I am an anti-theoist after all
