The Way of the Cross

Come by the way of the cross.

Come by the way of the cross

We receive our freedom

purchased at the cross of Christ

We receive forgiveness

In His final sacrifice

The rugged wretched cross

where his purpose was fulfilled

The rugged wretched cross

Where all our wounds are healed

God says I love you at the cross

For He is willing to forgive

Forgive and cleanse you of all your sins

So you can truly live

Atonement and remission

Through blood poured out for us that day

A price was paid on our behalf

One we could never pay

The true meaning is an offense

It confronts our hearts of stone

A confrontation all of us must face

Found at the cross alone.

The way of the cross leads home

The way of the cross leads home

The way of the cross leads home
