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...
but the third man
just looked at me.
Oh, the pain in this man's
eyes broke my heart in two!
It seemed I could
hear the third man say:
"I'm doing this for you."
I knelt beneath the
third man's cross,
and slowly bowed my head,
I reached out to
touch his feet,
and it stained my
hand's with red.
And when I heard
him cry in pain,
I raised my eyes to see;
Blood spilled from
the third man's side...
and some of it spilled on me.
The third man wore
a crown of thorns,
spikes held him to the tree,
I heard him cry,
"My God, My God,
why hast thou forsaken me?"
And those who mocked him cried,
"King...save Thyself
if thou art King!"
and then the third man died.
I heard the thunder roll,
and saw the lightening
pierce the sky.
Then third man was
still hanging there,
and I began to cry.
I heard the boulder fall,
and saw the breaking of the ground.
And then I awoke,
and thou I dreamed;
I touched my cheek and
found my eyes were wet
where I had cried.
A DREAM?
I wished I knew---
I can still hear the
third man say,
"I'm doing this for you."
