His final words live for eternity (how about you?)

Not asking to be spared, he hung upon a cross as a storm began to brew
“Father, please forgive them, for they know not what they do.” (Luke 23:34)
thieves on either side he granted, one, more than just advice
Truly i say today "you will be with Me in Paradise.” (Luke 23:43)
and as the time was nearing, and his work was nearly done
Jesus saw his mother there,"Woman, behold your son.” (John 19:26)
Our sin had come upon him, and now the hour, just around three
He exclaimed,“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” (Matthew 27:46)
The people there had watched it, what they asked for, as they cursed
Our God who had taken mans form, looked down and said,“I thirst!” (John 19:28)
Through all the abuse and beatings, his flesh was quite diminished
He cried out in glory and victory, to our father,“It is finished!” (John 19:30)
Just as you and I can say, he said for all to hear it
“Father, into Your hands, I commit to you My spirit.”( Luke 23:46)
Now these words will live for eternity, that is Good news for me and you
'ask Jesus for forgiveness', and like the words, we will have it too
 
John 3:16
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
I pray for a wonderful Day of remembrance (we call Easter) for all!
