Why?

He hears a voice,
A voice he’s never heard,
It called him by his heart,
But the voice was not from Earth.
It rumbled like the thunder,
And was as strong as the wind,
What he wouldn’t do to hear that voice,
Once again.

Then why did he listen,
To the voice,
The one that came from Hell,
The one of lust and lies,
And the truth it never tells.

Why did he choose hate,
When there is love,
Why did he choose death,
Rather than life itself.

Then he sees Jesus,
Hanging on the cross,
Him crying and suffering,
For the sins of the world.

The Father turns his head,
The angels look away,
Because Jesus took and became,
Sin on that day.
The once pure Lamb,
Now slaughtered by his people,
The last sacrifice,
The one that set us free,
If we’d only believe!
