Tears on a hill

Three of us were hanging
on crosses on a hill
one of us is hanging still
I was the winner of the local race
his loss was written in the tears
on his face
Pity me the winner
I gave him a special hug
and promptly went back
to drink from my jug
Three of us were hanging
on crosses on the hill
I am the one
who is hanging still
My wife is in the bedroom
she is with my best friend
this will be
her end
Pity him the winner
I walked away
poor guy has to live
with her each day
Three of us were hanging
on crosses on the hill
the weakest is hanging still
It is Sunday
the choir is singing low
the preacher is talking about the place
I am sure to go
See the pillow
where I lay my head
stains of blood
but I am not dead
Three of us were hanging
on crosses on the hill
Christ forgives me
but I am hanging still
When you read your prayer book
look deep inside
from your sins do not hide
When you ask for mercy
take what he will give
and pray that in his house
you will live
Pride and anger
haunt me
I bought
paid for
this tree
NOW
from this cross
I will
never
be set
free
