That One Over There

That one piece of wood, over o on that one hill,
can lift a dieing man,
up to laugh again.
That one piece of wood, over on that one hill,
can take our blackened hearts,
and bleach them white as new fallen snow.
That one piece of wood, over on that one hill,
can redeem the guilty,
like me and you.
That one piece of wood, over on that one hill,
saved my life, and possibly your,
all with the confession that it can.
That one piece of wood, over on that one hill,
is the cross.
That one man,
On that one cross,
Over on that one hill,
saved my life.

Wow, I have chills running throughout my body. I have tears in my eyes. I am reading something of such importance it must be written by someone of greatness, of fame, of glory, someone everyone has seen and heard and read about. This is something that must have been written by someone very famous. Oh, but it says Valerie. I know her. She is my granddaughter. She is 13. But wait, someone very important and famous did write this. It was the Holy Spirit and Valerie said yes, use my mind, use my heart, use my hand and write through me. Valerie, you are an instrument of God and He plays you beautifully.
