Heather Headley - Power Of The Cross lyrics

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 He 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 all my sin Every bitter thought, every evil deed Crowning Your bloodstained brow This the power of the cross Christ became sin for us He took the blame and 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 And Christ became sin for us He took the blame and bore the wrath We stand forgiven at the cross Oh, to see my name written in the wounds For through Your suffering I am free d**h is crushed to d**h and life is mine to live Won through Your selfless love And this the power of the cross Son of God, slain for us What a love, what a cost We stand forgiven at, we stand forgiven at We stand forgiven at the cross
