At Calvary

Does the old rugged cross, so despised by the world, still have a wondrous attraction for you? How often do you ponder the passion of our Savior?
If our meditation on the cross is meager, can our love for the Savior be great?
We are justified at the cross.
Romans 5:1,6 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ . . . . For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
I love salvation testimonies.
Years I spent in vanity and pride
Caring not my Lord was crucified
Knowing not it was for me He died
On Calvary.

Mercy there was great and grace was free
Pardon there was multiplied to me
There my burdened soul found liberty
At Calvary
        William R. Newell 1895
