Upon the Cross

Upon the Cross

I look with my eternal eyes
No longer bound in human guise
A voice echoes across the skies
That's calling to immortalize
The spirit left by my demise
Without reason to apologize
A man comes forth to bind the ties
That causes me to theologize
And take the hand that crucifies
While reaching out to edifice
A bridge that finally unifies
The people that we ostracize
