Almighty Meekness was portrayed
As Christ hung from the cross;
Though badly beaten and harshly scorned,
He counted it as loss.
Compassion poured out with His blood
That freely flowed in pain;
Forgiveness oozed out from his heart
That cleansed each guilty stain.
"Father, forgive them!" was His cry,
"They know not what they do."
Rain Your mercy from this cross
That they may soon find You.
Amazing grace, the humble Lamb
Hung freely on the tree;
Almighty Meekness chose to die
To ransom you and me.
