The journey Christ embarked on
He knew would lead to death,
He asked God to forgive them
Before He drew His final breath.

Many thought His journey over
As they laid Him in a tomb,
But Jesus had spoke of this
Resurrection would come soon.

The third day His Father raised Him
A message of hope would unfold,
It’s meaning was eternal life
For every believer young and old.

The reason for this long journey
Was so all the world could see,
How much Our Father loves us
He gave His only Son for you and me…
