those six hours

the first three hours
breathing out a sermon
the last words He would speak
hanging on the cross.

darkness fell over the land
cloaked with sorrow
the Savior of the world
dying on the cross

the final three hours
the world shrouded in darkness
God hanging on a cross
waiting for this to be finished.

darkness blocked out the sun
in the Devil’s playground
seeming to have a victory
with Christ on the cross
