Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Breathing his last
giving up his spirit
submitting to God
dying on the cross

Christ alive
until his choosing
alone to die
paying for our sin

That dark moment
yet affirming
His love enough
to die in our place

Letting go
of this existence
Christ prepares the way
for you and me

By his choosing
the pit of death
we too may rise
with him yet
