One Cross Three Nails
 
My savior was crucified
Long ago and far away
On a hill called Mt. Calvary
But not where He would stay.
 
Dragged through the streets
Spat on and and beaten
Humiliated and scorned
By a crowd of heathen.
 
Not believing His message
 How He was sent to save the lost.
Yet He was willing to die for them
Being nailed to the cross.
 
I wasn't there but I see the cross
I've read of His suffering and why He came.
Drops of blood ran down His body
As they put Him to shame.
 
I can envision Him nailed to that cross
And I can almost sense the pain
With nails in his hands and feet
As they left him there to hang.
 
As He labored to breath
With His weight pulling Him down
Against the cruel rugged cross
And a head piece of thorns for a crown.
 
But as it is known by God's Holy Word
Jesus stayed in the tomb only three days
Then came forth from the tomb
And went on his way.
 
Word went out through the land
And they did see
That Jesus is King of Kings
And shall always be.
