THE BRIDGE

  

The distance between our Maker
And a sinful world grew.
Something had to happen
To close the gap between the two.

So God used a single cross
To build a bridge across this span,
Held together by nine inch nails
And one Son of Man.

He glazed it with painful tears
Along with the Saviors blood,
As Christ's life slowly trickled
Below into the mud.

Mostly women stood and watched
This man they so admired.
The bridge, became completed
When Jesus' breath expired.

God granted us forgiveness
For all that we had done.
He built a bridge of love
Using His only Son.




God granted us forgiveness
For all that we had done.
He built a bridge of love
Using His only Son.




B. G. Wetherby
