so much blood – v3

so much blood
of the sacrifice, the Lamb
to protect the chosen;
blood on the door frames
the lintels, the sacrifice

the scourging
the crown of thorns
the angry nails;
the lintels of the cross
covered in blood

so much blood
of the Lamb
to protect the lost;
blood on the altar,
the horns, the sacrifice

poured out
for heaven
to give us new life;
so much blood spilled
in Christ’s sacrifice
