Verso 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

Verso 2

Oh to see the pain
Written on Your face
Bearing the awesome
Weight of sin
Ev'ry bitter thought
Ev'ry evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow

Refrão

This the pow'r of the cross
Christ became sin for us
Took the blame bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the cross

Verso 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

Refrão

This the pow'r of the cross
Christ became sin for us
Took the blame bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the cross

Verso 4

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

Refrão

This the pow'r of the cross
Son of God slain for us
What a love What a cost
We stand forgiven at the cross
