Two Pieces of Wood
Two Pieces of Wood
From trees that grew somewhere
Cut down and then sawn
A carpenter chose two pieces of wood
One short and one long.
He joined them together
In the shape of a cross
For another good carpenter
Whose life would be lost.
On that cross, crucified,
Jesus, nailed hands and feet
Our precious Saviour,
Crucifixion complete.
“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2
