This is the message of the cross, than we can be free To live in the victory, and turn from our sin My precious Lord, Jesus, with sinners You died For there you revealed Your love and you laid down Your life This is the message of the cross, than we can be free To lay all our burdens here, at the foot of the tree The cross was the shame of the world, but the glory of God For Jesus, you conquered sin and you gave us new life You set me free when I came to the cross Poured out Your blood for I was broken and lost There I was healed and You covered my sin It's there You saved me, this is the message of the cross This is the message of the cross, that we can be free To hunger for heaven, to hunger for Thee "The cross is such foolishness to the perishing But to us who are being saved it is the power of God" You set us free when we come to the cross You pour out Your blood for we are broken and lost Here we are healed and You cover out sin It's here You save us
