I was there
When they laid Him in the Manger
I was there
When they had to flee into Egypt
I was there
When He came to Nazareth
I was there
When he was asking questions in the Temple
I was there
When He was betrayed by Judas
I was there
When they yelled Crucify Him Crucify Him
I was there
When they spat upon Him
I was there
When they put the stripes on his back
I was there
When They mocked Him with the Robe around His Shoulders
I was there
When they put the crown of thorns on His head
I was there
When they put the heavy Cross on His back
I was there
When they nailed Him to the Cross
I was there
When the first drop of Blood touched the earth
I was there
You see Jesus did all this for Me all the suffering
all the agony the pain the sarrow Jesus did all this to save me from my sins so that when He comes again in the Cloud of Glory
I will be there
Glory to the name of Jesus my Lord and Savior
Author notes
I write this not for Point's and Trophies but to the Honor and Glory of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
Amen
This is what " ISAIAH 53 means to me the prophecy of the coming and the crucifiction of JESUS.

I would like to thank you for taking the time to view and enter my contest.
Contests here on Allpoetry are a lot of fun and I hope that everyone enjoys them.
I will soon be posting a contest for BRONZE only poems. I do hope you will consider entering.
If you are dreaming, you should be writing
For dreams are words we should share
Sharing makes us all stronger
So thank you for sharing your dreams and words with me
Judging:
Nicely written, I look forward to the day that "I was there as well".
Title: Not the most unique title yet it does fit well.
Content: Content was filled very well given your choice of poem.
Imagery: The imagery was good yet if adding just a little more description this poem would be very rich.
Grammar: There are some spelling errors you may want to change, just run it through spell check.
Flow: I think if you broke this up into a few stanza's with the ending of the stanza being "I was there" it was difficult to read and it threw off the flow. It is a nice poem honoring our Lord so I think I would want it very well polished.
A goal is a dream with a deadline.

Ever so deserving of the award, as I read it I wondered if you had it in a contest because the I was there tugs at the heart strings for those that love Jesus. You know I loved it!

This is beautiful. I enjoyed the read very much. I did have a typo on the contest page, and if an entry placed in another contest, it cannot be entered here. It is a great piece of poetry.
