Behold the Cross- Good Friday

Today Good Friday is a day of great sadness BUT also one of great joy for us who are Christians.
It is the day we remember we have the wonderful gift - freely given of Our Lord Jesus Christ dying on the cross for our Sins that we might have eternal life.

How great a gift, much more than we can fully comprehend, is this!
A gift of life through the sacrifice of His own that we may be reconciled with God Our Father.
What more can I say but- Thank you Lord for this and I pray that I may live my life in service to you.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3: 16

BEHOLD THE CROSS~

Behold the cross on which was hung

Life’s very Lord, God’s only Son;

Mary’s own babe, so cold and so still,

Helpless before her on Calvary hill.

Nails in his hands, nails in his feet,

A traitor kiss upon his cheek;

And his pierced heart, now broken in two,

Love crucified for me and for you.

Eyes that won’t see, ears that won’t hear,

Lips that deny the friend once so dear;

Slowly he turns and captures your eye,

Then passes on to Calvary to die.

Behold the cross of Christ in our midst:

All those who bear his wounds in their flesh.

Suffering for crimes of mercy and peace,

Signs of the kingdom on Calvary street.

Behold the cross on which was hung

Life’s very Lord, God’s only Son;

Mary’s own babe, so cold and so still,

Helpless before her on Calvary hill.
