Its Good Friday, 9 am. At this time in ancient Palestine on that day, Jesus the Christ arrives at Golgotha, the Place of the Skull--Calvary. The cross is laid upon the ground, and the Son of Almighty God is shoved on top of it, on His back, arms stretched wide. A soldier puts a foot on His arm; and a 9-inch spike is placed between the two bones of his lower arm, just below His wrist; and with a huge mallet another solider drives the spike through His arm and into the wood. Again, it is done to the other arm, and then to His feet. Then the cross is lifted high, and dropped into a hole in the ground and wedged in place. The Son of God, the Gift of Gods love to you, my Prince of Peace, is crucified. When I survey the wondrous cross, on which the Prince of Glory died, my riches gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride. Oh Lord, God, forgive me.
