Final Words

https://suno.com/s/YTmT0hKrhFnjlBjR

His breath was heavy
Constricted by the cross
Nails in His feet and hands
His words were at a loss

Hanging in that place
Bearing all my sin
He spoke these words of life
That we might live again

He said “I thirst” and showed His weakness
Becoming open to His need of God
He could not drink alone, but needed help
Asking for compassion from all of us

These words are words of life, and not of death
These words were spoken with His final breath

The words of Jesus on that cross
His breath defeated, His life a loss
His words bring victory to all who hear
And know the meaning of His final words

He said, “It is finished”, and then He died
The work of redemption, sin crucified
His work in the end was crying out
Needing what he could not give Himself

These words are words of life, and not of death
These words were spoken with His final breath

The words of Jesus on that cross
His breath defeated, His life a loss
His words bring victory to all who hear
And know the meaning of His final words

And in the midst of it all He said forgive them
For they know not what they do
His words ring down through the ages
That we should always live with gratitude
Forgiving those who wrong us
Thirsting for their love
Knowing it is finished
And Jesus dwells above

These words are words of life, and not of death
These words were spoken with His final breath

The words of Jesus on that cross
His breath defeated, His life a loss
His words bring victory to all who hear
I pray that you will hear Him today
