Chris Tomlin's song 'The Power of the Cross' reflects on the transformative power of Jesus' crucifixion. It poses rhetorical questions about what can heal, restore, and save, answering that it is the cross where the Lamb of God laid down His life. The lyrics emphasize the cross as mighty, awesome, and wonderful, lifting believers from the fall. The song expresses gratitude for the cross and acknowledges that through Christ's wounds, believers are healed and saved. It is a worshipful declaration of the central Christian belief in the atoning work of Jesus.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
What can take a dying man and raise him up to life again?
What can heal a wounded soul?
What can make us white as snow?
What can fill the emptiness?
What can mend our brokenness?
Brokenness
[Chorus:]
Mighty, awesome, wonderful
Is the holy cross
Where the Lamb laid down His life
To lift us from the fall
Mighty is the power of the cross
What restores our faith in God?
What reveals the Father's love?
What can lead the wayward home?
What can melt a heart of stone?
What can free the guilty ones
What can save and overcome?
Overcome
[Chorus]
It's a miracle to me [2x]
And It's still a mystery [2x]
It's a miracle to me
The power of God
For those who believe
Mighty, awesome, wonderful
Is the holy cross
Where the Lamb laid down His life
To lift us from the fall
Mighty is .......
Mighty is.......
Mighty is the power of the cross
Thank You for the cross [2x]
Love the cross [2x]
So Powerful...... ohhhhh yeahhh
What can take a dying man?
And raise him up to life again?
Worship You Jesus
By your wounds we are healed
By your wounds we are saved
Mighty is the power of the cross [2x]
Thank You Jesus for the Holy cross
