We sang this song in care group last night. I had never heard it before, but I really like it!
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
Chorus 1
This the pow’r of the cross
Christ became sin for us
Took the blame bore the wrath
Wes stand forgiven at the cross
Verse 2
Oh to see the pain written on Your face
Bearing the awesome weight of sin
Ev’ry bitter though ev’ry evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow
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 vict’ry cry
Verse 4
Oh to see my name written in the wounds
For through Your suff’ring I am free
Death is crushed to death live is mine to live
Won through Your selfless love
Chorus 2
This is the pow’r of the cross
Son of God slain for us
What a love what a cost
We stand forgiven at the cross
