“It is finished”
words of agony from Jesus’ lips
“It is finished”
no greater love will again eclipse.
“It is finished”
these words aloud Jesus said
and for the sins of everyone
His soul hemorrhaged and bled.
“It is finished”
but, what really had just begun
was that grace and forgiveness
were freely given by God’s Son.
“It is finished”
but, for you it can be a new start
if you repent now of your sin
and give Jesus your whole heart.
“It is finished”
Jesus died so that you’d be free
if you let His death at Calvary
take you down to your knees.
“It is finished”
but, it’s not the end of the story
not until the day all of mankind
bows before God’s in all His glory.
“It is finished”
words of hope from Jesus’ lips
“It is finished”
don’t let His love for you eclipse!
~~~~~~~~~~~
“So when Jesus had received the sour
wine, He said, “It is finished!” And
bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.”
