the scandal of Christ’s cross

the outrageous judgment

the abundant love

the extravagant gift

the scandal of Christ’s cross

choosing death, for us,

God on the tree

God came from heaven

to set each one free

free to choose

to turn our back on Jesus

but that’s just another nail

in our own coffin

the abundant love

the outrageous judgment

the scandal of Christ’s cross

weighing upon us
