Laying Down Our Lives by Raymond A. Foss

Prophetic words, made real
not theoretical, as he is our example
laying down our lives for our friends
putting our lives on the line
loving one another, as he loved us first
offering himself, God, walking with us
himself for our sins, substituting himself
for our crime, our punishment
a definition of love
offered on the altar of the cross
love for our friends
sacrificial and complete
