Christ's power over death! | Easter

"Christ was all anguish that I might be all joy,
cast off that I might be brought in,
trodden down as an enemy that I might be welcomed as a friend,
surrendered to hell's worst that I might attain heaven's best,
stripped that I might be clothed, wounded that I might be healed,
athirst that I might drink,
tormented that I might be comforted, made a shame that I might inherit glory,
entered darkness that I might have eternal light."stripped that I might be clothed, wounded that I might be healed, athirst that I might drink,tormented that I might be comforted, made a shame that I might inherit glory,entered darkness that I might have eternal light."

from the Valley of Vision (pg 76)
