God Over Suffering

Lonely, twisted, tortured Figure hung upon a tree
Lacerated back, wrenched limbs and nails through hands and feet
Bleeding brow and driest mouth, plunged into darkness, God-forsaken
Now I believe, this is the God for me

God over suffering
God not immune to pain
Only a God like this redeems
God who can empathize
God who would give His life
No other God will do for me

In our struggles, in our trials, we need a God who feels
Gods that cannot understand are gods that cannot heal
But in Christ upon the Cross, bearing our pain, portrait of love
This is the proof, this is enough for me

I'm not ashamed that Jesus wept, that Jesus bled
O blessed pain, my God can feel, O bless His name
