إكليله مضفور

Representative Text

1 - إكليلُهُ مَضفورٌ
بالشوكِ مِن أجلي
يُدمَى به جبينٌ
فاقَ سنا النُّبْلِ
قد وضَعَتْه أيدٍ
أثيمةٌ للعارْ
تاجاً لرأسِ الفادي
ربِّ السماءِ البارْ

2 – بالعار ترضى طوعاً
وألمِ الصليبْ
دِماك تجري طُهراً
للصفحِ يا حبيبْ
آلامُك العظيمَهْ
تُخَففُ الأثقالْ
وروحُك الرحيمَهْ
تُحيي بنا الآمالْ

3 - تحت الصليب أجثو
لأرفعَ الصلاهْ
مخلصي فداني
بسفكِهِ دِماهْ
يسوعُ قد هداني
في ظلمةِ الوُجودْ
بصلبِهِ أحياني
ففُزتُ بالخلودْ
