A Mystery

When stressful times surround you
   don't let them get you dowm.
Keep a smile upon you face 
   and wipe away that frown.
God is right there with you
   giving constant love and care,
So take your burdens to Mt. Calvary
   to Christ's Cross and leave them there.
It' was'nt nails that held Him 
   to that cross, but you and me.
With love He bought salvation
   and He set the captives free.
On that cross He purchased pardons
   for ALL sinners through the ages.
The plan to bring men back to God
   that mystifies the Sages.
