It was the greatest triumph in history.
The victor died. Yes died,
The most brutal way ever devised
Forever defeating the advisory.
Not to the victor. Not for his sake
For his enemies' advantage, he chose
By dying, he rescued his foes,
Loved ones he refused to forsake.
Hell's prisoners were set free
Having been bound and enslaved
By the chains of their nature depraved
Separated from love by decree
Now free to choose life over death
Death is swallowed up in victory
Because of he who entered our history
And chose to die to give us life and breath
Having once breathed life into his creation
Now breathes eternal life to all who choose
Not one of these will the victor loose
All shall enter into his victorious celebration

Being Easter time and since its good friday we think about our Lord and what he did for us on that day on the cross at calvary , we could never thank him enough for giving us salvation and victory in our lives for our healings in our minds and bodies , to feel his love , peace and joy and to remember those who need him in their lives as well so we talk to them about what he did for the world and try to bring them in so that they may feel what we do , may the Lord be with you on this day
