At that cross Jesus
The Lamb of God was slain
To reconcile us to the Father
And break the curse of sin and shame
He defeated the powers of darkness
Now He reigns high over all
We cry Holy Holy Holy
Is the Lord
God’s determination can never be denied
To bridge the gulf between us
For He was crucified
Stretching to the heavens
Penetrating hell
His arms reach out towards the whole earth
Oh what love
And sacrifice
I have found
At that cross
At that cross
