He walked on water
Gave life to the dead
And fed five thousand
With five loaves of bread
But on the Cross
At His Father’s will
Jesus gave His life
While the world stood still
While the soldiers gambled
For the clothes He wore
His disciples trembled
Behind locked doors
But by His side
One thief believed
And Mary wept
As He struggled to breath
And the thunder roared
And the darkness fell
Then He cried “Forgive!”
And the world stood still

And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments.

Excellent, Pete. Concise but detailed.
