by A.M. Moodley
A little girl looks up at Him As He looks down at her, She runs up to embrace Him, Her heart set afire. In tears of sadness, she embraced Him tight. He said, “My daughter, do not be afraid, For you have earned truly the greatest might.” A soldier pushes her, “This must not be delayed.” A crown on His head; A cross on His back; She looks as He walks ahead, As though this is what He lacked. Tap, tap, tap, went the hammer - When the nails were put in The cross put up as a banner. There He hangs, dead, for all our sins Aquilla looks up in tears, She hears the mourning of His mother, “He took away all of our fears, He is my Heavenly Father.”
