3 nails 1 cross = 4 Given Written by Alex Bush

The other day I read a sticker on the back of a car.
It opened my eyes to read a message by far.
It said 3 nails 1 cross equals 4 given.
A priceless gift which in blood it was written.
I think it's time to bow our heads and pray.
Thank you father for I am here today.
Through all of life's twists and turns.
Walked over so many bridges that should have been burned.
I've made it through things I cannot believe.
Did I say I, sorry, I meant we.
We've made it through predicaments certainly unforeseen.
Before I would fall you gave me a shoulder, which to lean
We fight so hard because in the end, it will be worth it.
But sometimes I feel as if I don't even deserve it.
I need to speak, stand, get off the island and spread the word.
I just picked 2 of 5 now it's time for you to pick your verb.
He spread the biggest message ever known to man.
Without computers, posters or a cell phone in his hand.
He is loving, honest always spoke the truth.
And did all this with nothing more than me and you.
He gave us a mind to learn and eyes to see.
We've seen we've learned but do we use our mouth to speak?
When something goes wrong it's natural to pray.
But if something goes good do we act the same way?
Now is now before was then.
So speak up next time, everybody. Amen.
