The sky turned a crestfallen dark,
from the sixth to the ninth hour mark.
And the son of God cried.
When the son of man died,
A new light came caressing the ark


which had been unto Adam long sealed.
The mercy seat's gold was revealed
unto sinners and all
who would heed the great call
that resounded as Earth quaked and reeled.

I like limericks too. No matter what the poetic forum, the message is clear.

Stephen; You out do your own self each time here...this is a masterpiece..the message of His suffering and the promise of new life is so clearly inspiring..

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
