Poem In Every Heart

In every heart there is a void
Which only Christ can fill
It’s the reason He wouldn’t avoid
The agony of Calvary’s hill
He felt the pain we felt
His heart heard our despair
As by the whipping post He knelt
Bearing our every care
On the cross flowing with blood
He served our sentence
Sinless, Beloved, and judged
So we may be Christ’s descendants
The Light shown from within the tomb
Before the stone was ever moved
Righteousness had filled the room
From accused to now approved
As God walked out of the grave
He walked into the believer’s heart
That hole filled, the longing craved
God’s child with a brand new start
