Love's Climb
Calvary is an assent that seems base,
a mountain Love climbs.
The cross is a stake
driven in the heart
of the earth
to save it from lies,
holds a weight
that’s forgotten
and cries,
hangs a promise
it cannot betray.
Hold on with all your strength!
There’s power in climbing
to die every day.
