The Shadow Of The Cross (single)

In the shadow of the cross he found mercy
In the shadow of the cross he found grace
Redemption thru one sacrifice
With his blood he paid the price
In the shadow of the cross he found grace

To a hill that called Golgotha
They led God’s only son
And they hung him on a rugged tree
For crimes he had not done
And they gambled for his garments
Casting lots there in the dust
But that soldier found forgiveness
In the shadow of the cross

In the shadow of the cross he found mercy
In the shadow of the cross he found grace
Redemption thru one sacrifice
With his blood he paid the price
In the shadow of the cross he found grace

He cried Father please forgive them
For they know not what they do
Were the words our Savior uttered
And today those words ring true
You see we were just as guilty
As the soldiers on that hill
But he died for you he died for me
To complete his Father’s will

In the shadow of the cross he found mercy
In the shadow of the cross he found grace
Redemption thru one sacrifice
With his blood he paid the price
In the shadow of the cross he found grace
In the shadow of the cross he found grace
