THREE RUSTY NAILS

Three rusty nails, one wooden cross

The sins of the world hung on the one who suffered for the lost

With blood flowing from His crown to His feet

He died for you and me

The skies opened up with a thunderous sound

Our Lord and Savior arose over the clouds above

That same power that took Him from Calvary

That same power lives in you and me

Three rusty nails could not hold

THE KING OF KINGS

So poignantly simple, ending with a truth that many find hard to believe. I love the first two lines. He hung on the cross, and the sins of mankind hung on him. And I like this, "That same power that took Him from Calvary
That same power lives in you and me." Such a quiet invitation that invites to come. Very well done!

Love how the structure of the poem looks like the very same cross with the "Three Rusty Nails", well done.
