A Symbol of Love (The Cross of Calvary)

An Easter Prayer ***********

My Lord:

There is a stillness in my heart as I walk across the floor

and stand so quietly in awe of this majestic sight

Something wonderful builds inside of me and I yearn for more

As I draw in much closer with all of my love and might.

Tears begin to form in my eyes and trickle down my face

When I think of all the pain that you suffered just for me

A mighty promise was formed at this very place

That shaped the meaning of pure love for all eternity.

Your forgiving heart wove a beautiful spot just for me

My Savior, a treasured gift that I so greatly cherish

Your love fills me looking at this symbol of hope's beauty

May I always be humbled by its meaning is my wish.

Amen.
