Two Streams.
Caesar crossed the Rubicon To win an empire crown, And all who dared oppose his sway He ruthlessly beat down, Until he straddled o'er the world And his ambition won; But men and women cursed the day He cross the Rubicon.
Jesus passed o'er Cedron Brook, Though well He knew for Him / Awaited on the farther brink Hell's terrors stark and grim, ! The bloody sweat, the traitor kiss, The Cross His soul that shook; But a ransomed world acclaims the night He passed o'er Cedron Brook.
To all of us there comes a time When we our lives decide: Shall we to vain ambition yield, To selfish whims and pride? Or shall we m self-sacrifice Follow the ford Christ took? With Caesar cross the Rubicon, Or Jesus Cedron Brook? — Andrew Paterson.
