He Came, He Sought, He Conquered by Tom Horonzy
Faith Poetry Contest contest entry

 
I stood beside His crib
and marveled what I saw
the Son of God had come to earth
to save my bloody soul.
 
He led His life selflessly
lifting those once fallen down
Loving them more than He did Himself
until stating ...  "It is finished."

Now I stand all amazed.
The stone's been set aside.
His tomb lays empty. He has risen!
Graves hath no victory anymore.

Author Notes
It came to me as I dreamt. I witnessed his birth (verse 1), his miracles (Verse 2), and the empty tomb (verse 3). He did what none other could, exchanging mortal death for eternal life.

The sculpture by Bertel Thorvaldsen is in the welcome center at the visitors center in Salt Lake City.
