The Power Of The CrossWhen I Survey The Wondrous Cross (Live)

<p>[Spoken]<br/>And surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows<br/>Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted<br/>But He was pierced for our transgressions<br/>He was crushed for our iniquities<br/>Upon Him was the chastisement that brought us peace<br/>And with His wounds we are healed<br/><br/>[Verse 1]<br/>Oh, to see the dawn<br/>Of the darkest day<br/>Christ on the road to Calvary<br/>Tried by sinful men<br/>Torn and beaten, then<br/>Nailed to a cross of wood<br/>Oh, to see the pain<br/>Written on Your face<br/>Bearing the awesome weight of sin<br/>Every bitter thought<br/>Every evil deed<br/>Crowning Your bloodstained brow<br/><br/>[Chorus]<br/>This, the power of the cross<br/>Christ became sin for us<br/>Took the blame, bore the wrath<br/>We stand forgiven at the cross<br/><br/>[Verse 2]<br/>And now the daylight flees<br/>Now the ground beneath<br/>Quakes as its Maker bows His head<br/>Curtain torn in two<br/>Dead are raised to life<br/>&quot;Finished!&quot; the victory cry<br/><br/>[Chorus]<br/>This, the power of the cross<br/>Christ became sin for us<br/>Took the blame, bore the wrath<br/>We stand forgiven at the cross<br/>[Verse 3]<br/>Oh, to see my name<br/>Written in the wounds<br/>For through Your suffering I am free<br/>Death is crushed to death<br/>Life is mine to live<br/>Won through Your selfless love<br/><br/>[Chorus]<br/>This, the power of the cross<br/>Son of God, slain for us<br/>What a love! What a cost!<br/>We stand forgiven at the cross<br/><br/>[Verse 4]<br/>When I survey the wondrous cross<br/>On which the Prince of glory died<br/>My richest gain I count but loss<br/>And pour contempt on all my pride<br/><br/>[Verse 5]<br/>Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast<br/>Save in the death of Christ my God<br/>All the vain things that charm me most<br/>I sacrifice them to His blood<br/>[Verse 6]<br/>Were the whole realm of nature mine<br/>That were a offering far too small<br/>Love so amazing, so divine<br/>Demands my soul, my life, my all<br/><br/>[Outro/Spoken]<br/>And all glory to Him who loved us and freed us<br/>By shedding His blood for us
