The Power of the Cross (Live / Sing! 2019 Edition)

Keith Getty, Stuart Townend

[Intro: Jackie Hill Perry]
Wilt Thou forgive that sin, where I begun
Which was my sin, though it were done before?
Wilt Thou forgive that sins through which I run
And do run still, though still I do deplore?
When Thou hast done, Thou hast done, for I have more
Wilt Thou forgive that sin, by which I won
Others to sin, and made my sin their door?
Wilt Thou forgive that sin which I did shun
A year or two, but wallowed in a score?
When Thou hast done, Thou hast done, for I have more
I have a sin of fear that when I have spun
My last thread, I shall perish on the shore
But swear by Thyself that by my death Thy Son
Shall shine as He shines now and heretofore
And having done that, Thou hast done, I fear no more

[Verse 1: Kristyn Getty]
Oh, to see the dawn
Of the darkest day
Christ on the road to Calvary
Tried by sinful men
Torn and beaten, then
Nailed to a cross of wood

[Verse 2: Kristyn Getty]
Oh, to see the pain
Written on Your face
Bearing the awesome weight of sin
And every bitter thought
And every evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow

[Chorus: Kristyn Getty]
This the power of the cross
Christ became sin for us
Took the blame, bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the cross

[Verse 3: Kristyn Getty]
Now the daylight flees
Now the ground beneath
Quakes as its Maker bows His head
Curtain torn in two
Dead are raised to life
"Finished!" the victory cry

[Chorus: Kristyn Getty]
This the power of the cross
Christ became sin for us
Took the blame, bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the cross

[Verse 4: Kristyn Getty]
Oh, to see my name
Written in the wounds
For through Your suffering I am free
Death is crushed to death;
Life is mine to live
Won through Your selfless love

[Chorus: Kristyn Getty]
This the power of the cross
Son of God slain for us
What a love! What a cost!
We stand forgiven at the cross
