Behold The Savior Of Mankind

The curtain of the temple was torn in two.
Jesus called out with a loud voice,
"Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit."
~Luke 23:45-46

"'Tis done!" The precious ransom's paid,
"Receive My soul," He cries!
See where He bows His sacred head!
He bows His head, and dies!

But soon He'll break death's envious chain,
And in full glory shine:
O Lamb of God! was ever pain,
Was ever love, like Thine?
