An Anthem for the Undone

A divine anthem for the forlorn, the frail and the fallen from He who was undone first - permit these love-filled truths to wash over your soul and water your spirit. It is the Jesus of the Cross who explains His heart for you if you would choose to believe:

The depth of my love for you pierced my heart,

The value of your being raised me from the dead,

I have withheld nothing of myself from you, nor will I ever consider it.

In tears I ached with you,

In shame I shared your sadness,

I have withheld nothing of myself from you, nor will I ever consider it.

In travail of body I carried your troubles,

In your humiliation I have seen the wounds,

I have withheld nothing of myself from you, nor will I ever consider it.

I know your shattered spirit,

I see your shaken soul,

I have withheld nothing of myself from you, nor will I ever consider it.

I have clothed you in my mantle of grace,

I have enfolded my wings around you,

I have withheld nothing of myself from you, nor will I ever consider it.

I have not ceased being at your side,

Nor have I ceased to count your tears,

I have withheld nothing of myself from you, nor will I ever consider it.

I have never withheld myself, I am not withholding myself now and I will never withhold myself - WHY?

because - I love YOU and want YOU too much. 

- Jesus the Christ

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13)
