Message of the Cross Lyrics

You set me free when I came to the cross,
Poured out your blood for I was broken and lost.
There I was healed and you covered my sin
C2(no3)
It's there you saved me
This is the message of the cross
Verse 3:
This is the message of the cross, that we can be free.
To hunger for heaven, Lord, to hunger for Thee.
"The cross is such foolishness to the perishing,
But to us who are being saved, it is the power of God."
Chorus B:
You set us free when we come to the cross.
You pour out your blood for we are broken and lost.
Here we are healed and you cover our sin.
It's here you save us.
You set me free when I come to the cross.
Pour out your blood for I am broken and lost.
Here I am healed and you cover my sin.
It's here you save me.
This is the message of the cross.
Coda:
Let us rejoice at the foot of the cross
C2(no3) G/B D
We can be free, glory to God
Thank you, Lord Thank you, Lord
C2(no3) G/B D
You set us free glory to God
This is an absolutely cracking song from a band that are going to be
even bigger than they are already. Keep an eye out for them. The track
comes from the Cutting Edge 1 & 2 album. The words are by lead
singer/acoustic guitarist Martin Smith.
