Allison Durham Speer - Cross of Christ Lyrics

On Calvary's mountain hope was born
God Himself the sacrifice
He carried sin, its grief and scorn
Upon the precious cross of Christ
I have not seen this rugged wood
To which my Savior was enticed
But evil hearts were changed to good
Upon the precious cross of Christ

(Chorus)

Oh blessed hope unbounded grace
When all our good would not suffice
He challenged darkness face to face
Wpon the precious cross of Christ

There is a joy that's found within
Those who are born not once but twice
For they have learned that life begins
Upon the precious cross of Christ

(Repeat Chorus)

For I have learned that life begins
Upon the precious cross of Christ
