Happy Birthday to Amelia and Adrienne
Happy Good Friday
This is the day that the Lord Jesus Christ gave up His life some 2000 years to save us from our sins and grant us eternal life. Here are a few poems taken from a huge pictorial book titled "The Story of Jesus"...
1) There Is A Green Hill Far Away
There is a green hill far away,
Without a city wall
Where the dear Lord was crucified
who died to save us all.
We may not know, we cannot tell,
what pains He had to bear,
But we believe it was for us,
He hung and suffered there.
He died that we may be forgiven,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to Heaven,
Saved by His precious blood.
There was no other good enough
To pay the price of sin;
Only He cold unlock the gate
Of heaven and let us in.
O dearly, dearly has He loved,
And we must love Him too,
And trust in His redeeming blood,
And try His works to do.
2) Citizen of The World
No longer of Him be it said,
"He hath no place to lay His Word."
In every land a constant lamp
Flames by His small and mighty camp.
There is no strange and distant place
That is not gladdened by His face.
And every nation kneels to hail
The Splendour shining throuh its veil.
Cloistered beside the shouting street,
Silent, He calls me to His feet.
Imprisoned for His love of me,
He makes my spirit greatly free.
And thought my lips that uttered sin,
The King of Glory enters in.
