3 Nails Plus A Cross Equals Forgiveness

Contributed by kidpoet_213 on Saturday, 14th August 2004 @ 10:34:57 PM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems



In my Christian walk with thee
I have found forgiveness is the golden key
If I forgive another who has done wrong to me
Then I myself can ask forgiveness of the Lord
And by His wonderful grace it will be granted to me

Cause
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness for me
When Jesus died upon that lonely lonely tree
For me a sinner a lost lonely and dying one
He spilled His precious precious blood
He took all my sins and then bore them upon the cross
So that I might have everlasting life through Him
And receive forgiveness within my heart
And believe that
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness for me

I once was a sinner lost in a world of sin and shame
Tried of living my life in vain
Pushed to and fro by the wicked winds of life that blow
Having no knowledge of those three nails plus a cross

Then one night in the wee hours of the morning light
I heard a knock at my hearts door
I slowly began to open the door
To find my Savior standing there
A loving smile stretched across His face
Showing me He cared with His beauty and grace
As He stood there silently in the soft rain
That was falling down from my hearts window pane
Ill never forget the sound of those whispered words of love
That my heart found that night sent down from above

He said to me
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness from me
When I died upon that lonely lonely tree
For you a sinner a lost lonely and dying one
I spilled my precious precious blood
I took all your sins and then bore them upon the cross
So that you might have everlasting life through me
And receive forgiveness within your heart
And believe that
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness from me

Now you too my friend can receive this same forgiveness as me
If youll just heed to the knocking at your hearts door
And surrender all to the Lord
And hear those whispered words of love within your heart
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness from me

Just as He said to me
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness from me
When I died upon that lonely lonely tree
For you a sinner a lost lonely and dying one
I spilled my precious precious blood
I took all your sins and then bore them upon the cross
So that you might have everlasting life through me
And receive forgiveness within your heart
And believe that
Three nails plus a cross equals forgiveness from me

Nice job
I like your poem.To be Christian is to be called to suffer along with Him. "Pick up your cross,Come follow Me" very good poem.
