Choosing to Cherish

"He save others; Himself He cannot save" (Mark 15:31).

There was a choice for Jesus Christ
Regarding us to make:
Either to be sacrificed,
Or us He must forsake.

Either He could leave cross
And thus His own life cherish,
Or suffer then to spare us loss,
That we might never perish.

Praise the Lord who made the choice
To cherish us instead!
Worship Him! In Him rejoice,
Who is no longer dead!

Yes, He saved others; so it was
Himself He could not save.
We choose to cherish Him because
For us His life he gave!
