I wondered what God was going to say
for excitement was high at church today
The piano played as we were talking,
then towards the pulpit he came walking.
He was a Child of God and preacher man
with an open bible held in his hand.
When he opened the service with a prayer
silence fell upon us as we gathered there.
......
He died upon the fearful tree,
Upon an April day,
Atop the hill of Calvary,
As all men know and say;
Three years and thirty He had walked
Upon this beauteous earth;
With sinners He had dined and talked
And joined in merry mirty.
