I Went Through So You

Wouldn’t Have To

I went Through so You Wouldn’t Have To

I was put on trial and judge unfairly

Because of this I know how to be your

Lawyer in the courtroom

I will defend you in such away

That if you was facing life

I could get you Free

I went Through so You Wouldn’t Have To

The pain you have suffered or maybe suffering now

Because of what someone has done or because of sickness

Is nothing compared to what was afflicted on Me

Pilate order that I be whipped but this was not just any whip

This whip was made of leather straps and with two balls

Attached to the end of each strap

Which were made of sharp bones

Now image that whip hitting your skin so

Deep that when they pulled the whip back

You could see My bones

I took this beaten so when the doctors

Say there is nothing else we can do

You can say by His stripes I am are healed

On top of all that they took

A crown of thorns and placed it on my head

Piercing my head in such away that

Blood begin to drip from my brow

The shedding of my blood

That will set the captive free

The evidence that I went through so you did not have to

Is My nailed scared hands

My nailed scared feet

And the piercing in my side

I went through all this and so much more

That you may have Everlasting Life

It is

Finished the Battle is Over
