Cross Of Jesus

Cross of Jesus, cross of sorrow,
where our sinfulness was laid.
Perfect love on You was broken,
as the way to God was paved.

Chorus:
Cross of love—the scar of Heaven,
cross of love—that heals my soul.
Let me not forget Your mercy,
let me give the life I owe.

O what language shall I borrow,
as I praise You, faithful Friend?
How for us You bore our suffer'ng,
in Your love, which has no end.

Died, that I might be forgiven,
by a power not my own.
With His glory set before me,
cross of Jesus, lead me home.
