The Day My King Wore A Crown
Pastor Michael has been in the ministry for 10 years. He currently is pursuing his Master's from Andersonville Theological Seminary.
It Was For Me He Wore A Crown
The day my King wore a crown
It was platted on his head in jest
If only on my head it were around
I could only be so blessed
I could not bear the authority
To save souls by giving my life
Christ left his throne of majesty
To heal me with his travail and strife
That crown tearing into his face
His blood running down
He bore it all to take my place
The day my King wore a crown
A mock trial an angry crowd
A soldiers whip in hand he squeezed
Spoke a Father about a Son that made Him proud
This is My Son in Whom I Am pleased
Led to a post they stripped Him down
Forty lashes save one they gave
The day my King wore a crown
HE endured the scourging strong and brave
The day my King wore a crown
Shouldering His cross the hill he climbed
Led to suffer without the gate
Mockery and jeering all the crowd chimed
Is this brutality my King's fate
I could not see His precious face
All I saw was the thorn filled crown
They nailed His hands and feet in place
The day my King wore a crown
Six long hours of hanging on that cross
As the crowd gathered was about to begin
He died to redeem the lost
He took my place to forgive my sin
A soldier thrust a spear in His side
They laughed as they cut Him down
Strutting swords and spears with pride
The day my King wore a crown
My Jesus I will follow
Even when men shall run me down
I will speak Your Word as I go
And die for You if You allow
For it was for me You my King, wore a crown

I had the title for this poem for 2 weeks before it broke through and the words flowed. It took about a minute to write then.
