My God grieves as in that night in Gethsemane


everytime my eyes gaze at idols


My Savior’s voice becomes a fading whisper


in my every doubt and grumble


My redeemer is crucified once again


as I turn my back from His loving face


Every idol, every ounce of unbelief


is my King’s crown of thorns


Each act of unfaithfulness is a shout of


“Crucify Him!”


My disobedience is the heavy cross He bears


and I lash His body a hundred times with my ungratefulness


His flesh is torn, His sweat mixed with blood


The wickedness within me hammers the nails into my Lord’s hands and feet


I hear Him groan in suffering,


still my utter pride takes Him to Calvary


The Son of God shall only die once


yet in every moment of my self-centeredness and rebellion,


Jesus Christ, my Lord and King,


in my heart,


dies a painful and gruesome death over again.
