An Easter song with meaning beyond Easter. Taken from the viewpoint of two people at the crucifixion of Christ, the Centurion & Mary Magdalene. Once they realized who Christ was they could no longer deny who he must become to them.

The songs of songwriter Russell J Adams from Lawrenceville, GA
Heart felt describes the way I've approached songwritng ever since I first started writing lyrics in 1977. Crafting thought provoking lyrics then combining them with exciting music to deliver the songs message has always been the goal of every songwriter, myself included.

Lyrics
âœLover of My Soul❠(The Centurion) Iâm the one I drove the nails, That tore into His flesh. Iâd cursed at Him And mocked His name, And caused Him so much pain. Yet in all His agony, He looked on me in love. Chorus So how could I not choose Him? How could I refuse, To love the one still loving me In spite of all Iâve done? (Mary Magdalene) I was there I saw Him bleed, And I heard His cry for help. All my life Was spent on me, That left me bound in chains. Yet in all His suffering, He somehow knew my need. Chorus So how could I not choose Him? How could I refuse, To love the one still loving me In spite of all Iâve done? How could I refuse to love The lover of my soul? Russell J. Adams Rewrite: 11-2-99,Original: 3-83
