The Descent from the Cross by Christina Georgina Rossetti




Is this the Face that thrills with awe
     Seraphs who veil their face above?
Is this the Face without a flaw,
     The Face that is the Face of Love?
Yea, this defaced, a lifeless clod,
     Hath all creation's love sufficed,
Hath satisfied the love of God,
     This Face the Face of Jesus Christ.


by Christina Georgina Rossetti

I hope you enjoyed reading, and may God who is able to make all grace, every favour and earthly blessing come to you in abundance, do far above all you can ask or think, according to the power that works within you. Be blessed.
