Unrequited Love
Unrequited love,
Nailed upon a tree.
Broken hands,
Holding me.

Unrequited love,
A traitor to His law,
Deserving death for disobedience,
His forgiving what He saw.

Unrequited love,
Nailed upon a tree.
Fading lungs,
Giving breath to me.

Unrequited love,
Wrapped up in a sheet.
Arms drawing me,
To dance to a different beat.

Unrequited love,
Sealed into a grave.
Eyes boring into mine,
Daring me to be brave.

Unrequited love,
Bursting forth in glorious day.
I fall down upon my knees,
Without anything to say.

Unrequited love,
My brokenness forever gone,
This wretched sinner that He chose,
Breaking out in joyful song.

Unrequited love,
Reaches down to me.
He sings of life forever,
From a cross that set me free.

Unrequited love,
Nailed upon a tree.
Unrequited love,
Paid the price for me.
