Three
Point of Grace's song "Three" reflects on the number three throughout the Christian story, from the Trinity to the three wise men, Peter's three denials, and the three crosses at Calvary. It emphasizes the crucifixion and resurrection, highlighting God's love expressed through Jesus' sacrifice. The lyrics contrast human sin with divine grace, culminating in the message that the three nails and three days reveal the depth of God's love. The song is a worshipful meditation on the core events of the gospel, inviting listeners to remember the power of Christ's victory over death.
Three, holy three in one
Father, Spirit, Son
Mercy moving Them
Three kings followed a star
Hope cries in the dark
Born in Bethlehem
Three times that He was tried
Judgement built on lies
Beaten and betrayed
And three times that His good friend
Said I don't know this man
And He was led away
And three crosses stood against the sky
A King abandoned left to die
The violent clash of grace and sin
The worst of us, the best of Him
And three nails hammered home the truth
Of three words, I love you
At three the darkness found its end
The Father turns from Him
He takes His final breath
And in three days the world would see
His power and victory
This love that conquers death, conquers death
And three crosses stood against the sky
A King abandoned left to die
The violent clash of grace and sin
The worst of us, the best of Him
And three nails hammered home the truth
Of three words, I love you (I love you, I love you)
I love you (I love you, I love you)
And three crosses stood against the sky
A King abandoned left to die
The violent clash of grace and sin
The worst of us, the best of Him
And three nails hammered home the truth
Of three words
Oh those three words
I love you
