Analysis of A Crown of Thorns
A crown of thorns was placed on Jesus’s head;
A short while later he was dead;
On the third day after his death He rose again to have eternal life;
Christ loved us so much the he gave His life, the ultimate sacrifice;
They accused Him;
They abused Him;
But through it all His faith never left Him;
Jesus died so that we may live;
Praise the Lord for all He gave.
