Like a Lamb


This poem came to me toward the end of the sermon at Mililani's Trinity Church today and I scribbled it down on the edge of our sermon notes before transferring it to my handy notebook.

May it be a blessing.


Scripture: Matthew 20:17-19 17Now as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside and said to them, 18"We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death 19and will turn him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!"



Like a Lamb
He took up the cross
and chose to die
for freedom’s sake,
for you and I,
to save us from our
daily sins,
the victory over death
for us to win.
