The Power Of The Cross

And oh to see the dawn of the darkest day

Christ on the road to Calvary

Tried by sinful men, torn and beaten

Then nailed to a cross of wood

This the power of the cross

Christ became sin for us

Took the blame, bore the wrath

We stand forgiven at the cross

And oh to see the pain written on Your face

Bearing the awesome weight of sin

And every bitter thought, every evil deed

Crowning Your bloodstained brow

This the power of the cross

Christ became sin for us

Took the blame, bore the wrath

We stand forgiven at the cross

And oh to see my name written in the wounds

For through Your suffering I am free

And death is crushed to death and life is mine to live

Won through Your selfless love

This the power of the cross

Son of God slain for us

What a life, what a cost

We stand forgiven at the cross

This the power of the cross

Christ became sin for us

He look the blame, bore the wrath

We stand forgiven at the cross
