TRANSFORMATION THROUGH THE CROSS     A HYMNAL EXPERIENCE

 JESUS, REMEMBER ME, United Methodist Hymnal pg. 488 
Luke 23: 32-34
Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.  When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left.  Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing”. And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
