Who really cares? Who understands
the rusty spikes through feet and hands?
His feet wore dust that turned to mud
when mixed with his own sweat and blood.
And then, of course, some thorns were found
and weaved into an ugly crown.
A painful mocking, gross insult
(but we know now the end result).
He was so sore and in such pain,
yet love for us would somehow gain.
He gave us life and gave us breath!
He saved us from eternal death!
When we have judged His greatest foes,
then we are just as bad as those.
Let's praise His work, His will, His way.
Let's bow and give Him thanks today.
But we pray for expedience
while He seeks our obedience.
while He seeks our obedience.
Remember His beatitudes!
Let's change our selfish attitudes.
I tell you world, I can't compete
with such a love that's so complete.
There is no greater love than His
and that is what the greatest is.
From greatest love, for greatest foe,
can we not see from here below?
From greatest love, for greatest foe,
can we not see from here below?
From greatest love, for greatest foe,
can we not see the halo's glow?
