By The Cross

Long my soul has waited for You

Bound by sin and nature's night

But in the secret, I will find You

A mighty ray of holy light


Oh, these chains were sweetly broken

Bound by shame, You set me free

Perfect love, my fear was stolen

When Thou, my Jesus, died for me

By the cross of Jesus Christ

Every sin was bought at the highest price

And every fear was lost, every sin erased

When Jesus took the cross, He took my place


All my heart I lay before Thee

To sound the depths of love divine

So free, so infinite, Your glory

That I am Yours and You are mine


By the cross of Jesus Christ

Every sin was bought at the highest price

And every fear was lost, every sin erased

When Jesus took the cross, He took my place


Oh, by the cross of Jesus Christ

Every sin was bought at the highest price

And every fear was lost, every sin erased

When Jesus took the cross, He took my place, yeah


Then sings my soul, then cries my heart

'Til Kingdom come, 'til Heavens part

'Til He returns or calls me home

I'll praise the name of Christ alone

Then sings my soul, then cries my heart

'Til Kingdom come, 'til Heavens part

'Til He returns or calls me home

I'll praise the name of Christ alone

I'll praise the name of Christ alone


Long my soul has waited for You

Bound by sin and nature's night

But in the secret, I will find You

A mighty flood of holy light

Yeah, yeah, yeahh


And by the cross of Jesus Christ

Every sin was bought at the highest price

And every fear was lost, every sin erased

When Jesus took the cross, He took my place


And by the cross of Jesus Christ

Every sin was bought at the highest price

And every fear was lost, every sin erased

When Jesus took the cross, He took my place

When Jesus took the cross, He took my place
