On the cross at Calvary
Our precious Lord was slain.
We could never comprehend
His suffering and pain.
But He triumphed o'er the grave
And rose on Easter morn.
He became the avenue
For man to be reborn.
The cross is now a resting place,
Where man may come to heal...
Where God, in His great love for us,
Salvation will reveal.
How beautiful the cross of Christ,
The hope of all mankind,
The symbol of eternal life
Which our great God hand-signed.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
John 3:16 KJV
