Love crucified

Love crucified upon a cross 
Beaten bloody sore 
Righteousness mocked and wounded 
So goodness he could pour 
All himself he emptied 
Every last bleeding drop 
So the Son of man 
Could reap a mighty crop 

Men still be blinded 
To this love unfailing  
Our Christian legal ways 
We still our God are nailing 
Do we know his love 
Deep down in our hearts 
To carry another sinners cross 
The homosexual still departs 

We offer him righteousness 
When compassion is deeply needed 
Both are essential 
But let's prefer our body bleeded 
Let's not despise the outcast
In our wicked pride 
Let's not forget for all 
The risen saviour died
