The days of Lent
a forty-day season
able to change our lives
if we would let them
Reflecting on the sacrifice
our savior going to the cross
the meaning of God’s grace
his infinite love
The unworthiness of man
not enough to stop him
choosing to go to Calvary
to seal the ancient breach
The stain of sin from Adam
and those made by each person
all washed away by his blood
at the end of the season.
