It was Friday…
But not just any Friday…
It was the day Love was betrayed by a kiss…
And the Creator was handed over to be crushed by His creation
It was the day the innocent one was condemned…
…And the guilty… went free…
The day justice bowed to jealousy…
And mercy was hung between two thieves…
It was the day the crowds cheered for Barabbas…
(drum hit) And scorned the one who had healed the blind…
It was the day the soldiers mocked…
The thorns pierced, The whip tore, And the nails held
It was the day the sky went dark…
The ground shook…
And hope hung silent on a cross
He was wounded for our transgressions
He was crushed for our iniquities
The punishment that brought us peace…
Was placed upon Him
And by His wounds — we are healed…
(pause)
On this Friday…
We remember his love…
We remember the cost…
We remember the cross…
This is our King…
This is the Gospel…
This is Good Friday…
