The Cross

On that hill far away

upon the cross that day.

Jesus gave His all

To save us from the fall.

They took His robe away

His blood flowed that day.

They beat His body down

As He fell to the ground.

They spit upon His face

In that awful place.

Dark were the clouds

As they shouted out loud.

The crowd was in a rage

This was not an act on stage.

The Roman soldiers nailed His hands

and His feet like a criminal man.

He did it for you and me

To save us from the enemy.

Precious Lamb of God was He

Sacrificed for you and me.

Willingly He went to the cross

He paid sins dreadful cost.

He had no sin of His own

It was for us He did atone.

When you think of Him up there

Hanging on the cross in the air

Remember it was for our sin

He died but He lives again!
