God's Living Truth


A Point to Ponder...

The Third Man

 
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 though 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."
