Clarence Billheimer Poet Lyric

Calvary's Tree

CALVARY’S TREE

I think that I shall never see
A tree quite like Mount Calvary,
The tree where Christ died in my place
That I might be saved there by His grace,
The tree that points to Him to say,
"I am the truth, the life, the way."
The tree where all my sin He bore
That I His righteousness might wore,
A tree where "It is finished" cries
That I might live there in the skies--
Yes, poems are made by fools like me,
But only God could make that tree.

--Written from the poem “Trees” with a spiritual meaning.
