The heart of the cross of Calvary, is God’s Salvation for you and me. <br />Through The Lord’s temporal pain, He achieved for us Eternal gain. <br />The bloody death of Jesus Christ, was for all men God’s Sacrifice. <br />Christ’s atoning work on the cross, saves all men from eternal loss. <br />Through the death of Jesus Christ, God offers all men Eternal Life. <br /> <br />The very heart of the cross is Love, and sent to all from God above. <br />On the cross upon His face, men could see God’s amazing Grace. <br />The heart of God’s Love for men, reaches into a world condemned. <br />On the cross the world could see, in The Son, God’s arm of mercy. <br />From that hill, a darkened place, men could see the Light of Grace. <br /> <br />The cross’s power’s not diminished, for by Jesus alone it’s finished. <br />The very heart of God’s Plan, was the reconciliation of sinful man. <br />The heart of it all is redemption, and you friend, are no exemption. <br />Upon the cross Christ died for all, to redeem man from Adam’s fall. <br />Christ my friend is God’s Salvation, not for one, but for every nation. <br /> <br />With His blood He purchased men, and not just some but all of them. <br />However, the heart of man is cold, and they scoff the message is old. <br />No one ever died for me they say, and so they go on their sinful way. <br />The cross of Christ will never be filled, as man follows his selfish will, <br />But selfless is the heart of Christ, as He died to give men Eternal Life. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©10/2005)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-heart-of-the-cross/
