RazonAnny Justin - If...........(not for Christ)

IF …..

If maidens never saw angels
Who uttered love, wreaked vengeance
If the manger was void of straw
To nest a babe born to correct our flaws
If three rumouring sages, Far East
Never disclosed the evil in Herods’ breast
If not the persecution and sacrifice
The seed of Adam would not have paid the price


If not for thirty pieces of Silver
The treachery of Iscariot, denial of Peter
The Crown of Thorn, sponge of Vinegar
Hospitality of Joseph Arimethea
If not the Cross, evil would’ve engulfed us
If not the Tomb, death would’ve won us
If not the triumphant Ascent….
The perpetual reminder of the Season of Lent
……..If not for Christ.
