Overcast
Atop a hill
outside a town,
a haven like none else
is found
beneath a crooked tree
an ancient bastion,
a shadow cast
on Mount Zion:
'twas my guilt;
a price was to be paid,
along with every sin
upon his head was laid
on the Cross
the pure reflected light
shone luminously
lily-white
sin forgiven
by his love
set free
Noah's dove:
In Christ rejoice
to the Saviour, sing and pray,
honour Greatest Love by choice -
give the Lord your life today!
