Three
crosses stand for all to see.
Two
were for thieves, and one for me.
I never
was nailed to that tree.
Another
was nailed there for me.
There
was a man who took my place.
My debt
is gone without a trace.
It was
not missed identity,
But
love that put Him on that tree.

Three
crosses stand until this day
To show
how He takes sin away.
Empty
crosses upon a hill
Remind
me of the Father's will,
And of
the Son who took my place
To bear
my sins and my disgrace.
He took
my guilt and bore my shame,
And I
will never be the same.

Three crosses
stand so I might see
The
love it took to set me free.
The
price was paid, there, for my debt
So that
the Father could forget.
I
prayed for mercy. He gave grace.
Then
with great Love, He took my place.
This is
the praise that I shall give,
"He
came to die, that I might live."
