and it is

       And can it be that I should gain
       An int'rest in the Savior's blood?
       Died He for me, who caused His pain?
       For me, who Him to death pursued?
       Amazing love! how can it be
       That Thou, my God, should die for me?
       
       Charles Wesley

set
to a tune that courses
too
encouraging the soul
even through chastisement
of the Cross
ignoble death
that we
might live
beyond
and into a life renewed
even with heaven
and
with Earth

like what the waiting’s for
by heroes in
great lore
by
each as we might sleep and wait
as well

who knows what purgatory sharing
or in the rescue
the harrow should provide

amazing love
how can it be
but is
for each
and every
and
yes
every
