Wait!
Do you think I never felt the pain,
Or I never wished it ended sooner?

Well!
I prayed the cup passed over me,
And I wished there was another way.

But!
I saw that reconciling you to the Father
Was worth more than my current suffering.

True!
You can't imagine the pain I endured
Just to bring you life.

So!
I ask that you come to me,
Ready to carry your cross.

Yet!
I left my throne, my crown,
And came down to dust.

See!
I was fully God, yet fully man,
Dying for sins I never made.

When!
I see you in glory, I want to dine with you,
Sharing the Lord's feast with you.
