I Was In The Dock Poem by Royston Allen

It came as a great shock
for I was in the dock
standing all alone
before the judgement throne.

Who can plead my case?
Who will take my place?
Who is willing to pay
to take my guilt away?

Then Jesus came my way
And I heard Him say
"I will take your place
And bear away your disgrace."

Lash by lash the price He paid
as my sins upon Him were laid.
'It is finished', was His cry
and for my life He chose to die

Waves of mercy flowed from the cross
His blood poured out, my soul to wash
Gone as far as the East is from the West
My sins are forgiven and I am so blessed
