DUST .....TO......DUST !

HE spoke into existence, all of the creation 

To let HIS sovereignty be acknowledged 

To spread HIS word, as messengers were we sent

To fix our eyes upon HIM, to seek HIS kingdom first 

To touch each soul, HE gave us  conviction 

Purpose of each breath, did HE  orchestrate 

Each bit of universe, in HIS glory is  meant 

The demons of darkness, away HE thrust

But HIS love we saw through, led HIM to  crucifixion 

To wipe off our sins, was HE anticipated

Gave up HIS sonship, so we could repent 

Earned us salvation, went through all that was unjust 

Betrayed, tortured, bore undeserved humiliation 

Flogged, mocked, ' A Fake King' was HE addressed 

Crowned with thorns, dressed in a robe scarlet

Endured humanly pain, hunger and thirst 

Broke HIS body, poured HIS blood for our sanctification 

Washed out, for, all that we were condemned 

To cleanse our hearts and souls, is HIS sole intent

In HIS holy hands, our lives so, we do entrust 

To model ourselves simply, to be HIS reflection 

In words and actions, HIS meekness be demonstrated

HIS holy sacrifice reminds us, every season of 'Lent'

To lead a righteous journey from 

Dust ..........to...... Dust !
