It's not conservative or liberal
However they're defined;
It's not about interpretation
Or the judgment of the mind;
It's the opposite of politics
Power or prestige;
It's about a simple message
And whether we believe
Chorus:
It's still the cross
It's still the blood of Calvary;
That cleanses sins
And sets the captives free
It's still the name
The name of Jesus
That has power to save the lost;
It's still the cross
We can water down theology
And preach a word to suit our needs;
We can justify sweet subtle lies
That are wrapped in noble deeds;
We can alter our convictions
To adapt to social whims;
But we cannot change the gospel
Or the truth contained within
Chorus
Though some may say it's man's religion
Or ancient history;
The cross of Jesus still remains
The price for sin that sets us free
