All for love, He created us in His image and likeness
All for love, He carved our names on the palm of His right hand
All for love, He knit our body parts together in our mother’s womb
All for love, He called us even before we were born
All for love, He gave us the freedom to choose
All for love, He let us do what we want
All for love, He wept seeing us go away
All for love, He tried to bring us back to Him, tried over and over again
All for love, the farther we went, the closer He came
All for love, He said, “Even if your mother forgets you, I shall not forget you.”
All for love, He said, “The mountains may depart and the Hills be removed but my love shall not depart from you.”
All for love, He came to find us, who were lost
All for love, He became man
All for love, He was born in a dirty, cold manger amongst the least important
All for love, the creator lived with the created, the poor and unwanted
All for love, He who makes all the laws of the universe, grew up obeying humans
All for love, He fasted for forty days and nights
All for love, He preached repentance, forgiveness and love
All for love, He chose twelve ordinary men to be his disciples
All for love, He walked with sinners, ate with outcasts, touched the untouchables
All for love, He cured the sick, the dumb, the lame, the blind
All for love, He raised the dead
All for love, He wept for our sins and our unfaithfulness
All for love, He gave us His Body and Blood
All for love, He who is Almighty, washed the dirty feet of his disciples
All for love, He prayed for all of us
All for love, He sweat blood
All for love, He was betrayed by His closest friends
All for love, He took the insults, the allegations, the humiliation without saying a word
All for love, He was chained and put through the shame of public trial
All for love, He was chastised and whipped so that we could be healed
All for love, He was mocked and hurt, He was spat at and punched
All for love, He carried the heavy cross on His shoulders
All for love, He was stripped, lashed, pierced, crucified amongst sinners
All for love, He hung on the cross, abandoned by everyone
All for love, He prayed for the forgiveness for each one of us
All for love, He who had no sins took the sin of the whole world upon Himself
All for love, He bled every drop of blood, He died the most painful death
All for love, He lay in somebody else’s tomb
All for love, death couldn’t stop Him, the tomb couldn’t hold Him
All for love, He rose from the dead the third day
All for love, He rose in all His glory and majesty
All for love, He met His disciples, gave them courage and faith which they had lost
All for love, He gave them hope, which was shattered
All for love, He gave them peace, which the world couldn’t give
All for love, He gave them joy which they couldn’t contain
All for love, He gave them a new life
All for love, He promised “I will be with you till the end of the ages.”
All for love, for you and me.
“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friend. And you are my friends.” – Jesus (John 15:13)
