The Man in the Middle

 Written by:   Tom Campbell

 

Chorus

Three men on a mountain,

            Up on Calvary,

            And the Man in the middle was Jesus.

            He died for you and me.  (repeat)

 

The man on the left was a sinner man.

Tied to the cross, he bled.

He could have been forgiven,

But he mocked the Lord instead.

You say you are the Son of God.

They nailed you to that tree.

Come down, come down and save us,

If God, Your Father be.

 

The man on the right was a sinner too.

He was sorry for his sins.

He begged the Lord’s forgiveness,

And Jesus said to him…

Fear not, fear not this earthly death.

Before this day is o’er,

You’ll be with Me in Paradise,

On Heaven’s golden shores.
