Jesus Paid it All - part one

This easter Sunday, our choir, orchestra, and drama team are presenting the reinactment of the crucifixion - The Wondrous Cross by Randy Pilz. As we had our run-through last night, I was stirred. I would like you to read these lines using your imagination as the lines will depict the sufferings that the Lord Jesus went through.

Was it a man at all? So, bruised, so bloody. His face horribly swollen from many blow; beard plucked out in places, matted with blood; a crown? of thorns? jammed into his head. The wretched man staggering beneath the weight of his beam - weakening, swaying, falling to his knees, his burden too great!

Oh that hill . . . that craggy hill . . . the appearance . . . of a human skull!
