Best Calvary Poems

In the darkness of day,
we, the tear baptismal ones 
were reborn

In the shadow of Calvary,
we, the gospel seed
was crucifixion conceived — 
A bereaved delivery

On that Golgotha noon night,
the Day Star died

And our mourning cries
had three days 
of cradle grave
Silent ultrasound whys

Adam and Eve paradise bliss

He pardoned me…at Calvary.
He died in my place.
He took my sin and I entered in
to that Holy of Holies place....

Christ is my Savior,
In Him I take my stand.
Death shall not change my behavior,
For eternal life is pierced in His Hand.

Through the valley of deadly shadows,
I shall carry His Sword in my sheath
His compassion dwells inside my window,
His Word of Truth breathes deep beneath.

In his...

A hundred days of tomb-like silence; a hundred days of blind eyes and deaf ears; a hundred days of wooden hearts and cruel minds. This was long ago, but still its stigma is there. Years may pass but MY LIFE will never be the same...

When I'm faced with life's battle's and the outcome of defeat,
When I'm weary from the scars I bare, for the war has left me weak,
I just go to the cross of Jesus, where my pain can be set free.
And no longer will I be captive,...

He has a name that is above all names!
He was given it and also earned it, you see!
There has never been another 
ever quite like him,
because of what he did 
for you and for me!

See, his Father did so, so love the world
that he was...

Calvary Hill. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I curse the day I ever entered Jerusalem,
I curse even more ever meeting Gestas.

The night chills seem to burn in to my wounds
and I feel wretched and stretched upon this cross.
The blood around my mouth has congealed
since i stopped biting my lips in...

On Calvary
Poem
Lionel Derbyshire

Sans devoid and bare
Now and then I stare
Out there feeling bereft
My punctured lung bleeds
Feet wont dare to step
I am nailed so hard
The clouds go dapple drab
The sky emboss so somber
Robber and I either side
I came to fetch many faults..

Sans devoid I bare the...

There were roses on Calvary that day, you know.
Bunches and bunches of roses adorning the skull.
Red roses! For crimson blood seeped profusely that day.
It had to be so for our own sake.  Divine blood 
that dripped from a thousand and one hematic wounds
as He...

I awoke in the morning to a different world
From the world I'd left, they'd find it absurd

To alls past acclaim, on Calvary Hill
It was not he who bled, but a woman's spill

She, the daughter, of a long loved king
To him now lost, what does his...

Purer and whiter than snow, thicker than water
protecting His people from the plans of the doer
if not for the one thing I wonder
for the love of the working ways wonder

where will you and I be for the past years 
from age to age, years to...

Man on a Hill

Man on a hill,
Bruised and broken,
Watches as the dice roll
For his seamless robe;
Stripped of his clothing;
No words are spoken
By the man on a hill.

Man on the hill,
Crushed by a crown of thorns,
Cries into the sky
Of the sunless day;
Forgiveness on his lips
Mercy adorns...

I
When the man whose blood ran as fecund streams
Gave up His last breath, darkness fell like judgment
It would hang from midday, one Friday, for hours
At three that afternoon, at a nearby Temple
The thick curtains, at least a meter deep, ripped
From top to bottom, revealing the...
