The Father's Son

He wasn't loved by everyone
                                               But He was Love 
                                                  The Father's
                                                        Son
                                            He bore our sorrows
                                               Wears the scars
                                                When He died
                                                For all of ours

                                            Sometime we carry    
                                              Wounds & Scars
                                            The battles rage on
                                             This earth of ours.

                                            When bitter battles
                                                 Rage about
                                            Sometimes the pain 
                                            Can cause us doubt

                                             A doubt....a wound
                                               Upon our hearts
                                            Confusion, sorrows
                                                Painful darts

                                          He carries these as well
                                                  My friends
                                             Holding them in nail
                                                Scarred  Hands

                                                 In this world, 
                                                  Tribulations
                                               But He overcame
                                              Bringing salvation

                                                Darts are flying
                                                   And pain is
                                                       Flung
                                                Upon the old and
                                                   Very young

                                               This world is full of 
                                                So much danger
                                               But from his birth
                                                Laid in a manger

                                                  He lived a life
                                                 He died a death
                                                He was raised up
                                                 Giver of breath
          
                                                 He paid the cost
                                                 To pay the debt
                                                And save the lost
                                                 And loves us yet
                                                     
                                                  He isn't loved 
                                                   By everyone
                                                  But He is Love 
                                                    The Father
