The cross

The Cross

 

praise him in all his glory

for behind this is a story.

a story for all the world to see.

and how He set mankind free.

 

HE gave up his life so that we may live

and freed us of mortal sin.

 

nailed to the cross with just a **** cloth.

and how they gambled for his garments

with his blood and everything on it.

 

and when the sky turned completly black

everyone ran and turned their backs.

 

they did not have any idea

the power that this man possessed

until they put their faith to the test.

 

when he came back on the third day

you could hear everyone say

HE is truely the son of GOD

and i'll keep him in my heart.

 

he kept his word that he'd return

and to his words we would forever learn.

after the sighting of his reincarnation

believers gathered for a celebration.

and on that day the number of apostles grew

to better serve me and you.

 

now there are holy men in every nation

praying for our salvation.

the cross that he was nailed to, still exists

but now it lives in our hearts

and has become a very big part

of the daily lives we live.

for the cross that we carry

is much different than his.

 

for we all have burdens and pains

that we must go through.

for that is the cross that we must bear,

and to the world our faith we share.

 

so carry this cross and hold your head up high

for he is looking down from the sky.
