Love Poem: The Crucifix

The Crucifix

I have it hanging in my house
To be there to remind
That love was given freely by
He, we should seek and find

Propped so carefully on the wall
I love to see it, I’m so proud
I display it there for all to see
Revere His name out loud.

It isn’t just a token to be seen
Nor an adornment for the room
But a symbol; hope, strength and love
By his rising from the tomb

Let it be said, He gave his love
By his dying, He gave it all
So when you look upon it now
See, it’s your faith upon the wall
