Power of The Cross

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


Oh, to see the pain

Written on Your face

Bearing the awesome weight of sin

Every bitter thought

Every evil deed

Crowning Your bloodstained brow


Now the daylight flees

Now the ground beneath

Quakes as its Maker bows His head

Curtain torn in two

Dead are raised to life

"Finished!" the victory cry


Oh, the power of the cross

Christ became sin for us

Took the blame, bore the wrath

We stand forgiven

We stand forgiven

We stand forgiven

We stand


We stand forgiven

We stand forgiven

We stand forgiven

We stand


We stand 

We stand

We stand

We stand


We stand 

We stand

We stand

We stand


Oh, to see my name

Written in the wounds

For through Your suffering I am free

Death is crushed to death

Life is mine to live

Won through Your selfless love


This, the power of the cross

Son of God slain for us

What a love, what a cost

We stand forgiven at the cross
