Three crosses silhouetted against the sky
A thief dying on one – he didn’t get by
A thief is also dying on the third frame
His sin was similar, his punishment the same
But Who dies on that middle cross
What has He done – that life should be lost?
Is He a big sinner? Say, what is His crime?
He had no sin, friend, until he took yours and mine.
His death is a redemptive death;
He replaced, ah replaces, mortal man
The Son of God died for sinners –
Have you ever heard of such a plan?

Three crosses silhouetted against the sky,
A thief dying on one – he didn’t get by.
A thief is also dying on the third frame;
His sin was similar, his punishment the same.
But Who dies on that middle cross,
What’s He done – that life should be lost?
Is He a big sinner? Say, what is His crime?
He had no sin, friend, till He took yours and mine.
His death is a redemptive death;
He replaced, ah, replaces, mortal man.
