Last weekend Topeka Bible Church’s resident cellist, Samuel Cho, played his arrangement of “Near the Cross with Jesus Love Me” — a thought provoking arrangement that represents Jesus’ death on the cross. He also played it at the Overflow worship event held Fellowship Bible Church later that evening (another great Topeka worship event).
The foot stomps Sam did represent the nails being driven through Christ’s hands. You can hear the rope being twisted — not a fun experience musically, which is the point. It was a tense moment. Have a listen here.
