He Laid Down His Life Poem by Lagaya Evans

We have come into this world
But a stranger in a foreign land
Only borrowing all his mercy
God gives with an open hand

His blood was spilled on Calvary
Upon Galgotha's hill
His fate he knew was death
One he accepted by his own will

He laid down his life
With you and I on his heart
He laid it all on that hill
He more than done his part

All he asks of us
Can't touch what he's done
Our Father God in heaven
Gave his only begotten son

He became as a man
And felt all our pain
That day the blood ran down
And washed away the stains

We are here but a little while
Our souls only passing through
He gave his life so we could live
He died for me and you

This worlds not my home
Mine awaits on the other side
From here to eternity
The reason my Jesus died
