Jesus and Alexander died at thirty-three!
A TALE OF TWO CONQUERORS Jesus and Alexander died at thirty-three! One lived and died for self; one died for you and me. The Greek died on a throne; Christ died on a cross; One’s life a triumph seemed; the other but a loss. One led vast armies forth, the other walked alone; One shed a whole world’s blood; the other gave His own One won the world in life and lost it all in death; The other lost His life, to win a whole world’s faith. Jesus and Alexander died at thirty-three. One died in Babylon, and one on Calvary. One gained all for himself; and one Himself gave. One died to conquer, and one the world to save. The one made himself God; and God made Himself less; The one lived but to blast; the other but to bless. When died the Greek, forever fell his throne of swords; But Jesus died to live forever, King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Jesus and Alexander died at thirty-three! The Greek made all men slaves; Christ made all men free! One built a throne on blood; the other built on love. The one was born of earth; the other from above. One conquered all the earth, to lose all earth and heaven; The other gave up all, that all to Him be given. The Greek forever died; Christ forever lives! He loses all who gets, and wins all things who gives! Author unknown |
