I Only Have The Cross To Blame
by The Erwins

Album: Life Story

I didn't walk one step up Calvary's hill
And I didn't lose one drop of blood
And i didn't die to do the Fathers will
I didn't pay the heavy cost of love
No I didn't lift a finger to purchase my redemption

But I've been rescued, I've been set free
There's a new man where the old man used to be
So if I cry when I start talking about the power of Jesus name
I only have the cross to blame

I turned my back when i heard mercy's voice
I took a path called My own way
And I lived for myself and I made every choice
By testing all the limits of His grace
But when life had left me broken
The door was still wide open

And I've been rescued, I've been set free
There's a new man where the old man used to be
So if I cry when I start talking about the power of Jesus name

I only have the cross to blame For the nights I sleep in peace
And I accuse a crown of thorns For the hope that rescues me
I only have His bleeding side to charge for everlasting life
And every blessing, big or small, It's not my fault

But I've been rescued, I've been set free
There's a new man right where the old man used to be

But I've been rescued, I've been set free
There's a new man where the old man used to be
So if I cry when I start talking about the power of Jesus name
I only have the cross to blame
I only have the cross to blame
