Three Crosses

Three crosses on a lonely hill,
A thief on either side,
And, in between, the Son of God...
How wide the gulf, how wide!

Yet one thief spanned it with the words,
"Oh Lord, remember me";
The other scoffed and turned aside
To lost eternity.

Forsaken is the hilltop now,
And all the crosses gone,
But in believing hearts of men
The center cross lives on.
And still, as when these sentinels
First met earth's wondering view,
The presence of the Lord divides.
Upon which side are you?

Here ya go. Beautiful song

THREE RUGGED CROSSES ON ONE LONELY HILL.
TWO MEN WERE GUILTY, THREE MEN WERE KILLED.
THREE MEN WERE BURRIED, AND TWO MEN ARE STILL.
SOMEWHERE NEAR THOSE THREE RUGGED CROSSES
ON ONE LONELY HILL.

I'VE ADDED IT UP, AND STILL DON'T KNOW WHY
AN INNOCENT MAN WOULD BE CHOSEN TO DIE
A CROSS IS A PLACE WHERE A SINNER SHOULD BE
TWO SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE, SO WHY DO I SEE"¦

THREE RUGGED CROSSES ON ONE LONELY HILL.
TWO MEN WERE GUILTY, BUT THREE MEN WERE KILLED.
THREE MEN WERE BURRIED, AND TWO MEN ARE STILL.
SOMEWHERE NEAR THOSE THREE RUGGED CROSSES
ON ONE LONELY HILL

WHEN I THINK OF BARABBAS, I THINK ABOUT ME
AND ALL OF US WHO SHOULD HAVE DIED ON THAT TREE
BUT JESUS WAS BORN JUST TO BE CRUCIFIED
IF I WERE TO LIVE, THEN HE'D HAVE TO DIE


THREE RUGGED CROSSES ON ONE LONELY HILL.
TWO MEN WERE GUILTY, BUT THREE MEN WERE KILLED.
THREE MEN WERE BURRIED, AND TWO MEN ARE STILL.
SOMEWHERE NEAR THOSE THREE RUGGED CROSSES
ON ONE LONELY HILL

THREE RUGGED CROSSES ON ONE LONELY HILL.
TWO MEN WERE GUILTY, BUT THREE MEN WERE KILLED.

THREE RUGGED CROSSES ON ONE LONELY HILL.
TWO MEN WERE GUILTY, BUT THREE MEN WERE KILLED.
THREE MEN WERE BURRIED, AND TWO MEN ARE STILL.
SOMEWHERE NEAR THOSE THREE RUGGED CROSSES
ON ONE LONELY HILL
