The Cross in the Middle
Once, there were three
crosses, standing upon a hill
The earth had grown
dark, the winds began to shrill
In the center of the crosses
was Jesus Christ, our Lord
His love had reached many
and ears had heard His Word
But, even though they listened
the Sacrifice still was yet to come
He came upon the earth, to see
His Father's will completely done
He turned His back on temptation
and was able to deny sin
So, we, too, may strive to do the same
to remain strong in Him
We keep our eyes upon the Cross
which stood there, in the middle
We keep our minds upon
His Word, and we are saved
from thorn and thistle.

Jesus said unto her,
I am the resurrection, and the life:
he that believeth in me, though he were dead,
yet shall he live:
