Last night I dreamed I took a walk Up Calvary's lonely hill, The things I saw With my own eyes Could not have been more real. I saw upon three crosses Three men in agony; Two, cried out for mercy, the third man looked on me. And oh, the hurt in this man's eyes just broke my heart in two! It seemed that I could hear him say " I'm doing this all for you." I knelt beneath the third man's cross, And humblely bowed my head, I reached out and I touched his feet, And it stained my hand's with blood. In agonizing pain he cried and I raised my eyes to see; The blood spilled from the third man's side some of it fell on me. The third man wore a crown of thorns, Spikes held him to the tree, I heard him say, "My God, My God, hast thou forsaken me?" There among the mighty crowd, The ones who mocked Him cried "If thou art King then save thyself And then the third man died. Suddenly, I heard the thunder roll and the lightening pierce the sky. The third man was still hanging there, And I began to cry. I saw the mountains break into the buildings rent and twain, I saw the dead raise from the grave and walk on earth again. A day like this has never been, twas darkness everywhere... And when I awaken, from my dream; My eyes were filled with tears. ---------------------- Thanks to (Rhonda Mullins) for correcting these lyrics. Jan 23, 2008
