Casting Crowns - The Power of the Cross Lyrics

he past that held regret over my head is gone

These chains are ashes now that once were rusted on

I was a runaway now I am finally home

My mind was a ghost town haunted by yesterday 

Until your hand reached down pulled me out of my grave

Into the freedom found only in Jesus’ name

I am forgiven 

No longer lost

Now I am living

In the power of the cross

The Father gave His Son so I could be set free

And now the scales are gone my eyes can finally see

I’ll tell the world of all Jesus has done for me

I am forgiven 

No longer lost

Now I am living

In the power of the cross

Goodbye to sorrow 

Welcome my joy

Now I am living

In the power of the cross

And on that cross, His love held true

Through sacrifice, the old made new

This life I live, I live in faith

Now in Jesus name

I am forgiven 

No longer lost

Now I am living

In the power of the cross

Goodbye to sorrow 

Welcome my joy

Now I am living

In the power of the cross

Thank you, Oh God I thank you

Jesus I thank you, thank you for the cross

Praise you, Oh God I praise You

Jesus I praise You, praise You for the cross
