Beaten and battered beyond all compare,
And I was the reason you were there.
You did this all because of my sin,
Over satan the mighty victory win.
Out of love, you walked up that hill,
Carrying the cross as the Father willed.
It breaks my heart when I think of that love,
That flows down to earth from Heaven above.
You hung there in agony all because of me,
To give me salvation so full and free.
And the words in my mind ring out so true,
“Father forgive them they know not what they do.”
