GOOD FRIDAY, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I for thy sake was pierced
Last Line: But bear it bravely, even to calvary.
Subject(s): Good Friday; Holidays; Holy Week


I for thy sake was pierced with heavy sorrow,
And bore the cross,
Yet heeded not the sharpness of the arrow,
Nor shame and loss.

So faint not thou, whate'er the burden be,
But bear it bravely, even to Calvary.
