HOW
MANY STEPS WERE TAKEN
TOWARD
GOLGOTHA'S WAY -
WHEN
JESUS CARRIED THE BURDEN
'FORE
HE DIED FOR US THAT
DAY ?
HOW
MANY STEPS WERE TAKEN
WHEN
THEY NAILED HIM TO THE
CROSS ;
AND
SPAT UPON OUR SAVIOUR
AS
HE SUFFERED FOR THE LOST
?
OH
WHO COULD EVER KNOW
HOW
HE WASHED AWAY THE STAIN
-
AND
SHED HIS BLOOD FOR PAYMENT
FEELING
ALL THE WHILE THE PAIN.
JESUS
MUST HAVE LOVED US
MORE
THAN WE CAN COMPREHEND
TO
TAKE OUR PLACE AT CALVARY
SALVATION'S
GIFT TO SEND.
HE
NEVER SAID 'I CANNOT'
WHEN
HE TOOK THE STRIPES FOR
MAN -
OR
CALLED TEN THOUSAND ANGELS
FOR
TO LEND A HELPING HAND.
HOW
MANY STEPS WERE TAKEN
AS
OUR SAVIOUR REACHED THE
HILL ?
THO'
NONE OF US DESERVE IT
JESUS
GLADLY PAID THE BILL.
HOW
MANY STEPS WERE TAKEN
'FORE
THEY DROVE THE FIRST NAIL
IN ?
I
KNOW THAT I COULD NEVER
PAY
THE PRICE HE PAID FOR
SIN.
HOW
MANY STEPS WERE TAKEN
BEFORE
CHRIST WAS CRUCIFIED ?
WE
MAY NEVER KNOW HOW MANY
BUT
IT WAS FOR YOU
HE
DIED.
