THEY PIERCED MY HANDS AND FEET
When we go through intense suffering;
Our senses may indeed be reeling.
Pain can be excruciating and deep;
How may we endure pain so steep?
Let us think of our precious Saviour;
For mankind’s salvation He laboured.
They pierced His hands and feet cruelly;
He bore the deepest pain so patiently.
The enemies took away His dignity;
They gaped at Him most defiantly.
They gambled His clothes away;
Jesus bore this too without dismay!
Whatever we may suffer cannot be compared;
From the cruellest pain He was not spared!
If only we can appreciate the suffering of the Lord;
We would find comfort and consolation in God!
