The Power Of The Cross

Verse 1

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

Verse 2

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

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3

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

Verse 4

Oh to see my name written in the wound

For through Your suffering I am free

Death is crushed to death, life is mine to live

Won through Your selfless love
