I am not afraid of death, torture, pain or suffering. In mind, body, soul and spirit, I am strong. Are you?

I was nailed to the cross,
I looked up, not down.
Sky was blue, clouds white.
Heaven waited, smiling.

I was nailed to the cross,
Felt no pain; had no frown.
In love, there is true might.
Paradise grinned; winning.

I was nailed to the cross,
Blood flowing to the town,
Filled with accursed blight.
The Lord arrived; blessing.

I was nailed to the cross,
Naked; no shred of a gown,
Yet within me, all was light.
Burdens lifted; I was rising!
