Lyrics
The lyrics for the song "That's What the Cross Is For" by Cade Thompson are as follows:
(Verse 1)
Do you have a list of regrets?
This longer than it’s ever been?
And you’re starting to shake
Under the weight of all your sin
(Pre-Chorus)
Does your heart feel stuck in the past?
Spend all of your life looking back?
Lies feel like truth
And you wonder if you can start again
(Chorus)
That’s what the cross is for
Chasing the darkness away
Breaking the bondage of shame
Raising new life from the grave
That’s what the cross is for
If you’re held down by yesterdays
And you wonder how Jesus can save
The person who you were before
That’s what the cross is for
(Verse 2)
Both of the nails in His hands
Are proof of a Savior who can
Turn in your story from ashes to glory
Again and again
(Chorus)
That’s what the cross is for
Chasing the darkness away
Breaking the bondage of shame
Raising new life from the grave
That’s what the cross is for
If you’re held down by yesterdays
And you wonder how Jesus can save
The person who you were before
That’s what the cross is for
(Bridge)
For everyone, for all of time
The precious blood of Jesus Christ
He paid it all, what a sacrifice
The precious blood of Jesus Christ
Bringing us new life
That’s what the cross is for
(Chorus)
Chasing the darkness away
Breaking the bondage of shame
Raising new life from the grave
That’s what the cross is for
If you’re held down by yesterdays
And you wonder how Jesus can save
The person who you were before
That’s what the cross is for
(Outro)
That’s what the cross is for
That’s what the cross is for
I’m not who I was before
That’s what the cross is for
