Stuart Townend - The 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 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 Ev'ry bitter thought, ev'ry evil deed Crowning Your bloodstained brow 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 Oh, to see my name written in the wounds For through Your suffering I am free d**h is crushed to d**h, 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
