Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Only Christ’s love
held him to the cross
the power to choose
to save us from lost

He went to the cross
because he loves us so
choosing to die
not to leave us below

From the pit we rise
on wings he gives us
redeeming us from death
like eagles we fly

Only God’s love
brought him to the earth
only by his choice
do we have our new birth

“It wasn't nails, but love, that held Jesus to the Cross.
He nailed down our salvation for eternity.”
