The Only One
by Rachel Spires
The Only One
All the love in my heart
Can't begin to express
All that you gave
Through his death.
They laughed and mocked
The most holy one
Never beginning to think
He was really your son.
A crown of thorns
Placed upon his head
And then so much blood
For each of us was shed.
And how have we repaid
This most noble deed
To our Father in Heaven
The only one we need?
