Forsaking glory
You became a man
To sacrifice was why
Your life began
O, ransome, yet
How you gave your life for me

On a cross enduring solitary agony
All the sorrow heaped upon you
For the world to see
Dear ransome
How you gave your life for me

To finally see that image indicts me
For never has a love
Shown so brightly
To realize you took my place
And died upon that tree
O, ransome what you did for me

I watched the beatings
As your back was torn
And I might as well have made
That crown of thorns
Dear ransome, yet
How you gave your life for me

And if it's really true
A picture paints a thousand words
Then I always want to see
This painful portraiture
Of my ransome
And how you gave your life for me

May it be there to remind me
Of the one who suffrered for me
Sweet ransome's
Never-ending love for me
