[email protected]. By Ralph A. Phelps Jr. ,. Three crosses stand on Calvary's hill Amid tumultuous shouts below. Three men die slowly on their trees In bitter anguish, sufferirut so. A robber hangs for crimes he's done And, unrepentant, makes no plea For mercy as he slowly dies, A sinner damned eternally. A second convict also dies But pleads for grace: "Remember me!" A wasted life and nothing more Than Jesus' love to set him free. A guiltless, blameless, perfect man- The third between the convicts stands. The cross of Jesus towers high And lifts the world with nail-pierced hands. Three crosses loom ,against the sky A sinner lost, a sinner saved, And one who died for sin (Praise God!) To free my soul which was enslaved. ~hoto by Louis C. · William, Page Two ARKANSAS BAPTIST Arlansa~ Bapfisi--~-'-------EniroRIALs ~ prove their point. · ' · The ministers-four )3aptists, one Nazarene .and one Methodist-went.
