"The Cry Of Dereliction On The Cross"

"At last silence fell and darkness came--darkness perhaps because no eye should see, and silence because no tongue could tell, the anguish of soul that the sinless Savior now endured. 'At the birth of the Son of God,' Douglas Webster has written, 'there was brightness at midnight; at the death of the Son of God there was darkness at noon.'"
