The Cross of Christ
by Cheri Keaggy

Album: Because He First Loved Us

My anger is mellowed
My hard heart turns soft
The pride I was wearing
Just melts and rolls off
The point I was making
Is suddenly lost
All when I think of the Cross

The walls that I build
And the spiritual talk
The burdens I carry
And keep in a box
Mistakes of a lifetime
And innocence lost
Fade when I think of the Cross

The cross of Christ
The strength of my life
This glorious thought
Still brings tears to my eyes
How You laid down Your life
So that I could have mine
At the cross, the cross of Christ

We listen to all
Of the truth we've been taught
And pray to be faithful
Whatever our lot
For grace has been granted
Our souls have been bought
Praise God for the work
Of the wonderous cross

The cross of Christ
The strength of my life
This glorious thought
Still brings tears to my eyes
How You laid down Your life
So that I could have mine
At the cross, the cross

Where would I go?
Where would I be?
If not for my blessed Savior
Who died for me
Well, I always will fight for You
Give my whole life for You
Nothing can stand in the way

Of the cross of Christ
The strength of my life
This glorious thought
Still brings tears to my eyes
How You laid down Your life
So that I could have mine
At the cross, the cross of Christ
At the cross, the cross of Christ
