The Cross and the Tomb

The cross it seems is everywhere Places of worship, places of evil Special places, everyday places Seems everyone has seen the cross And everyone wears the cross We have brought the cross to the world And the world has reduced it to an ornament No one asks about the cross No one wants to know its meaning Seems the more the spotlight shines upon it The more its light diminishes To some the cross was the end The final point of farewell to a misunderstood man But to those who know, The cross was but the entrance to the tomb, And the tomb the gateway to Heaven The world gave to God His Son on a cross God gave the world an empty tomb
