We Got Switched
It was explained, this way you see…
We got switched,
Him for me.
He was worthy, I carried shame…
He took the place,
For all I was blamed.
A selfless act, of a guiltless soul…
No other way,
Can this story be told.
We got switched, it’s plain to see…
We traded places,
Him for me.
One dark day, on a barren hill…
My medicine was taken,
Only, He took the pill.
Soldiers joked, and women cried…
While nailed to a tree,
He gasped and died.
We got switched, why should it be…
That righteousness died,
Him for me.
This act alone, was a bit too much…
But the story’s not over,
There’s an added touch.
He was buried, but He was the one…
Divine in nature,
The begotten Son.
In three days He rose, gave death the slip…
Broke the hold,
Of the icy grip.
Through faith in Him, and His act of love…
From the reach of death,
We can rise above.
We got switched, a gift that includes you too…
It comes from Him,
For me and you.
