Oh to see the dawn Of the darket day Christ on the road to Calvary Tried by sinful men Torn and bitten, 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 This, the power of the cross Christ became sin for us Took the blame, bore the wrath We stand forgiven at the cross 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 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 my name written in the wounds For through Your suffereing 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 This, the power of the cross Son of God, slain for us What a love! What a cost! We stand forgiven at the cross The Cross
