Foot Of A Cross

Standing at the foot of a cross
I look up in remembrance
of the studied word
on this holy week day


I feel the tangs of sorrow
knowing that he was placed upon it
a time long ago for all the world to see
he died there so there would be a tomorrow
a better place for the likes of you and me


He watches over me with infamous glory
he has prepared a greener pasture of serenity
for with the sinners will I take my place in line
knowing that he await for me
when this life has run out of time


After torture no human could ever sustain
he arose again after three days to fulfill the scriptures
Jesus was his given name
he knew that it was time
for the burden of the sinners, he took all the blame


God's Word says he takes care of all
the righteous ones who have the call
the unrighteous ones that stumble and fall


Some things about the trinity
we can't explain or understand
some sail in uncharted waters
some claim Jesus was just a great man


Others claim they don't know him
still others declare him untrue
yet I know he has come into my heart
he has with God's grace, forgiven me and you


So on this day of passover
remember the words he said
write them down and pass then along
to lost ones make sure this message is read


"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never
walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

(big hugggsssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, and it still saddens me to see people used to not believe Him and many still do but I only hope they can realize they are safe with Him and life will be promised to the and nothing more, nothing less, as life is the gist of all things that exist and He sacrificed Himself to have life continue without becoming completely adulterated! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dennis, thank you for sharing!



may love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Of all the interpretations of the Trinity that you've given here, I did like yours the best.  I believe, a fine tribute you gave here on your special time of remembrance of Him.  I do believe, as you have written, He is the True Light of the world and we do need to follow Him. Good job.

-Bob
