The Cross

It draws me near in humbleness, It shows the love so many miss hate, laughter, scorn, and shame, from those who know not His name. As I look it stands alone Wait!! It's pointing my way home. Standing tall with strength and height I will!! I will not forget my plight. I must hurry! witness, shout, and pray, telling others of this way. The cross, the cross, that mighty tree is where a friend died for me Quick! hurry! don't delay,for Jesus just might come today. Try not to stumble, please don't fall, If you do just give a loud call, Jesus! help! I'm on my way I want to be saved , to trust and obey.

What a wonderful way to witness and show respect to the Lord at the same time. It is a perfect way to call sinners to the altar. Thank you for sharing. Great job! Smiles from Lolita
