A Cross Beside The Road
There was a cross beside the road
And pretty flowers too
In remembrance of a precious soul
That crashed one afternoon
We knew he had arisen
From the accident there
With a place in Heaven given
Surely we declared
Some mourned hours long
And were unable to undo the crash
With their friend forever gone
Having driven his car too fast
The family knew the accident best
And could easily locate the place
Where their loved one came to rest
And went to Heaven that day
Many tears were shed in mourning
There beside the road
With flowers so nobody forgot him
God’s wrecked but salvaged soul
