Lyrics
Cruel Cross
Perfect man
Sinless life
Came to Earth
To show us how to live
Took his crown
Laid it down
No greater love
Could anybody he give
On that cruel cross
When it all seemed lost
He suffered and died alone
On Calvary
But he rose again
He beat sin and death
He's coming back
To claim his victory
On that cruel cross
I was lost
Without hope
In the dark.
Searching for light
Then I heard.
About a man
Who died for me
And gave me a new life
