A greater love than this has never been seen
Either on a digital TV or multi movie screen.
On that day, Good Friday
As Jesus hung; prayers were prayed; hymns sung
The real salvific work of redemption had just begun.
A greater love than this has never been seen
Either on a laptop, iPad or smart phone screen.
On that day, Good Friday
As we hid our faces as it were as Isaiah declared
From the blood-soaked body of Jesus suffering abhorred.
A greater love than this has never been seen
At any time this side of eternity
Which leaves us all with one certainty.
On that day, Good Friday
That the Lords love for us will always be free.
A greater love than this has never been seen
From the first moment of our life through conception
To when the last moments of our life dissipate and disappear.
On that day, Good Friday
The reality will be exactly as the gospel proclaims.
A greater love than this has never been seen
Above all other deity dreams and claims.
On that day, Good Friday
Life will never be the same again
We will be in Heaven for ever and ever.
A greater love than this has never been seen
On that day, Good Friday
You will sing God is my salvation
I will trust and not be afraid
Praise the Lord, call upon His name, Amen.
