Cross Words

The legacy of Billy Graham…



Billy Graham's preaching Bible

"We've lost our pope," I heard one say
the day that Billy passed away.
"He was the leader of our brand
of Christianity."

He made the Bible clear for me.
Just as I am without one plea,
I knew that I was loved by One
from Whom all blessings flow.

He preached we must be born again
by turning from our bent to sin
and simply trusting in God's Son
to claim eternal life.

By holding up the cross, words came.
His power was in Jesus' name.
A power that God used for good
within our broken world.

Thank you, Mr. Graham!
