Poem Commentary

In the spring of 2005 Mel Gibson directed a film called The Passion of the Christ.  I saw the movie on opening night.  When I tried to go to sleep that night, I continued to see flashbacks from the movie.  The next day I proceeded to go on to work but while at work I continued to think about the movie.  That night when I went to bed, the Holy Spirit led me to arise in the early morning hours.  I proceeded to go in the kitchen and turn the coffee pot on.  I then sat down at the table and by the time the coffee had finished brewing, God through the Holy Spirit had given me these words.

I pray that they will minister to you the way that they have ministered to me over the years.

It Was Love

Were you there when He prayed to the Father above and the Son was glorified?
Were you there when they mocked Him in the crowd and they yelled crucify.
Were you there when they spit upon His face and placed the throns upon His head?
The blood came dripping down His face, the color of crimson red.

I thank God for a hill called Mt. Calvary;
Were His blood was shed to set me free.
It was love that kept Him nailed to the cross;
His love for you and me.

I was there in the crowd that mocked His name and nailed Him to the tree;
I was the one who prieced His side and His blood came flowing free.
He died upon an old rugged cross to save a wretch like me;
I cried Dear Lord forgive my sins, a sinner's perfect plea.

I thank God for a hill called Mt. Calvary,
Were His blood was shed to set me free.
It was love that kept Him nailed to the cross;
His love for you and me.

It was love that kept Him nailed to the cross;
His love for you and me.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
