True humility

True humility loves the hill of Calvary where the king of glory bowed his head and died.

They who are meek will rejoice that this crucified spectacle is their beloved King.

There, 'repentance will shed a contrite tear.'

There, 'faith views with joy the great atonement.'

There, 'love glows with fervent desires to the Friend of sinners.'

There, the way to go is ascertained.

There, the weak are proud. The strong submit.

There, true humility adores his bloody flesh.

There you will go, cleansing your sins

Forsaking pride, forsaking yourself.

There, those who go blind do see.

There, sin does die.

And Love does win.

K.Oni
