Take a look at the world how the people run around Time marches on and the world keeps running down They're living in a fantasy, Of what they think life should be There's a deadness in this world and I know why People look for life from things that make them die They just can't understand, How my life is in God's hands And I won't fade away Life begins at the cross It's not easy to take, But it's the price you pay Life begins at the cross No other way And if you want to live eternally God said pick up you cross and follow me And then He was crucified Put on a cross crucified So I can live again Life begins at the cross It's not easy to take, But it's the price you pay Life begins at the cross No other way Authors note: It's not a piece of wood that hangs on your wall It's not a piece of steel(that means nothing at all) It's right here in our hearts, can't take it away Hang on to it ok?!
