V1
Darkness spread its lies
And said we’d always be
Unwanted and unloved
But from a lonely hill
A cry pierced through the pain
With mercy great enough
To silence all our guilty shame
To give the cross the final say
Ch
The Cross announces freedom to a fallen world
The Cross proclaims forgiveness with a single word
The Cross is heaven’s answer
For every heart that’s shattered
We can come in faith to arms wide open
Because the Cross has spoken
V2
Hear the blood-stained beams
They’re calling out your name
Inviting all to come
The timbers of his grace
Uphold Love’s sacrifice
It’s Jesus, God’s own Son
This holy frame on Calvary
Is still the sinner’s perfect plea
Br
This holy frame on Calvary
Is still the sinner’s perfect plea
Outro
Won’t you listen to
Listen to the Cross
