The Power of the Cross

Oh, to (F)see the (Bb)dawn of the (Cm7)(F7)darkest (Bbsus2)day,

(Ebmaj7)Christ (Eb6/9)on the (Bbsus2)road (Bb)to (Cm7)(Ebmaj7)(Fsus)Calvary.

(Eb)Tried by (F)sinful (Bb)men,

torn and (Cm7)(F7)beaten, (Bbsus2)(Bb)then (Ebmaj7)nailed (Eb6/9)to a (Bbsus2)cross (Ebmaj7)of (Fsus)wood.

(Bbsus2)This, the (Eb)pow'r (F)of the (Bb)cross:

Christ (Eb)became (F)sin for (Bb)us.

Took the (Eb)blame,

(C)bore the (F)wrath.

We (Bb)stand (Eb)forgiven (Fsus)at (F)the (Bb)cross.

(Eb)Oh, to (F)see the (Bb)pain written (Cm7)on (F7)Your (Bbsus2)face,

(Ebmaj7)(Eb6/9)bearing the (Bbsus2)(Bb)awesome (Cm7)weight (Ebmaj7)of (Fsus)sin.

(Eb)Ev'ry (F)bitter (Bb)thought,

ev'ry (Cm7)(F7)evil (Bbsus2)deed,

(Ebmaj7)(Eb6/9)crowning Your (Bbsus2)(Ebmaj7)bloodstained (Fsus)brow.

(Bbsus2)This, the (Eb)pow'r (F)of the (Bb)cross:

Christ (Eb)became (F)sin for (Bb)us.

Took the (Eb)blame,

(C)bore the (F)wrath.

We (Bb)stand (Eb)forgiven (Fsus)at (F)the (Bb)cross.

(Fsus)at (F)the (Bb)cross.

(F)at the (Bb)cross.

(F)Oh, to (G)see my (C)name written (Dm7)in the (C)wounds,

(F)for through Your (C)suff'ring (Dm7)I (C)am (Gsus)free.

(F)Death is (G)crushed to (C)death,

life is (Dm7)mine to (C)live,

(F)won through Your (C)selfless (Gsus)love.

(C)This, the (F)pow'r (G)of the (C)cross:

Son of (F)God (G)slain for (C)us.

What a (F)love,

(D)what a (G)cost.

We (C)stand (F)forgiven (Gsus)at (G)the (C)cross.
