The Cross Of Christ

The cross of Christ all men must view

For there salvation was bought for you

A price was paid and paid in full

A lamb was slain

The Lamb of God

I know not how, I know not where

But I know why he suffered there

It was for me

My heinous crimes

He took my place

Was crucified

It was a cross, prepared for me

My punishment, deservedly 

Yet God’s own Son, so sinless He

He bore my cross

He bore my sin

There in the grave His body lay

Awake my soul, He lies no more

See how He rose, victoriously 

And ever lives and prays for me

Awake my soul, my heart must sing

This is my hope eternally

For as he rose, so we shall rise

His guarantee, eternal life
