Crosstianity

The cross must be at the centre 
for Christ to have His effect 
there Jesus paid full atonement 
for those His father did elect 

The cross that has no Christ 
will be to us no use 
we'll still be covered in our sins 
no better than the wild moose 

The cross with no shed blood 
cannot have the crucified one 
for Jesus nailed on that tree 
when the great transaction was done 

The cross has the power 
when we are at our weakest 
to fill us with Jesus 
resurrection power to all that seekest 

The cross is the root of Christianity 
there Jesus accomplished His fathers will 
as God had planned before eternity 
ponder this as you stand still 

The cross changed history 
as God told His true story

AUTHOR NOTES: The Cross, the centre of all humanity, whether you believe or disbelieve, it can't be ignored for one day you'll face its consequences.
