It Was the Cross
How could You love us
When we have despised Your law?
How could You free us
And yet be holy and true to Your Word?
How could You save us
And still Your anger sate?
Lord to forgive us, this was the only way
It was the cross "It is accomplished" here
It was Your cross, here "it is finished,"
You conquered it all on the cross
Could you be righteous
Yet rescue the ones You love?
Could there be justice...
Without withholding Your mercy from us?
Could you be honest?
Yet pardon the sins You hate?
Lord, to absolve us, this was the only way
Wrath of God satisfied
Love of God on display, yes
You conquered it all on the cross!
Friends of God justified
With Your goodness intact, yes
You conquered it all on the cross!
When we have despised Your law?
How could You free us
And yet be holy and true to Your Word?
How could You save us
And still Your anger sate?
Lord to forgive us, this was the only way
It was the cross "It is accomplished" here
It was Your cross, here "it is finished,"
You conquered it all on the cross
Could you be righteous
Yet rescue the ones You love?
Could there be justice...
Without withholding Your mercy from us?
Could you be honest?
Yet pardon the sins You hate?
Lord, to absolve us, this was the only way
Wrath of God satisfied
Love of God on display, yes
You conquered it all on the cross!
Friends of God justified
With Your goodness intact, yes
You conquered it all on the cross!
