This is what today, Easter Friday, is all about…
This song and this video always move me, and touch me very deeply. Even as I watch it again as I write this blog post, I find my tears streaming down my face once again…all because of just how much Jesus gave up for me….His life!
He Had To Hold To Calvary by Garry Druery He could have left that cross that day To feed the hungry who were there He could have wiped the children’s’ tears away To show them He still cared He could have once again reached out His hand To give sight to the blind He could have kissed His mother one more time But He had to hold to Calvary To ever hold to me He could not free himself and set me free He had to surrender To win my victory He could not save himself and save me He could have proven to Jerusalem That He truly was God’s son He could have shown those who scorned Him That He was the mighty one He could have grieved the crown and filled the sky With angels to set Him free He could have walked away from Calvary But He had to hold to Calvary To ever hold to me He could not free himself and set me free He had to surrender To win my victory He could not save himself and save me But He had to hold to Calvary To ever hold to me He could not free himself and set me free He had to surrender To win my victory He could not save himself and save me He had to surrender To win my victory He could not save himself He could have walked away from Calvary He could not save himself and save me
Thank you Lord for the cross and all that means and represents to me and other Christians throughout the world.
