Christ's Death	4/4/85

On this day Christ died
Nailed upon the cross, in pain
Alone, he had been abandoned by God, and man
Let to hand, die slowly, suffocating

Those who watched, either cried or cheered
Darkness filled the sky, oppressive
Thunder of God's released anger, rocked the world
The rain washed us clean

Three day passed, the morning bright and clear
An empty tomb, the risen Lord, walks
And men still do not believe
He appears to those who love him
