Lyrics/Music by Keith Getty
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 blood-stained brow
Now the daylight flees, now the ground beneath
Quakes as it's Maker bows His head
Curtain torn in two, dead are raised to life
"Finished!" the vic'try cry
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
IT'S THE POWER OF THE CROSS
SON OF GOD SLAIN FOR US
WHAT A LOVE WHAT A COST
WE STAND FORGIVEN AT THE CROSS!!!!
beautiful song.....well done!
