The Power of the Cross
And oh to see the dawn of the darkest dayChrist on the road to CalvaryTried by sinful men, torn and beatenThen nailed to a cross of woodThis the power of the crossChrist became sin for usTook the blame, bore the wrathWe stand forgiven at the crossAnd oh to see the pain written on Your faceBearing the awesome weight of sinAnd every bitter thought, every evil deedSongtexteCrowning Your bloodstained browThis the power of the crossChrist became sin for usTook the blame, bore the wrathWe stand forgiven at the crossAnd oh to see my name written in the woundsFor through Your suffering I am freeAnd death is crushed to death and life is mine to liveWon through Your selfless loveThis the power of the crossSon of God slain for usWhat a life, what a costWe stand forgiven at the crossThis the power of the crossChrist became sin for usHe look the blame, bore the wrathWe stand forgiven at the cross Aus Songtexte Mania
