“Worthy is the Lamb”
A Poem written by Dr. W. Jack Hudson in 1956.
“A meeting was held up in heaven one day, and God, like the thunder, was heard to say, to earth from heaven someone must go to set an example, and to Satan say no.
Oh, Moses stepped up with his beard long and gray. I'll show men to heaven, dear Lord, if I may.
But God shook his head and said with a sigh, you must be without blemish on Calvary to die.
Enoch was next, and he softly replied, I'll go and tell them, you see, I never died. But God looked at Enoch and said with a sigh, You must be without blemish on Calvary to die.
Michael, a soldier in the army of glory, said strong and clear, I'll tell the story. God looked at the angel so willing to go. The temptations of Satan, the Savior must know.
Oh, Satan tricked me, said David with shame. Let me redeem men and return without blame. God looked at David with a tear in his eye. You must be without blemish on Calvary to die.
The rest of the saints and the angels came by, all of them willing on Calvary to die. There's no one to God, they sadly cried out, and the heavens were darkened and they looked all about. Suddenly the angels and the saints stood still when Jesus stepped forward, the place to fulfill. Not that one, dear God, the angels cried as the robe of authority he laid aside.
My Redeemer looked up and said with a smile, Make room for others, we'll be back after a while. He glanced around heaven and waved goodbye on his way to earth on Calvary tonight.”
