In the shadow of the cross
Let everything fall into place again
Jesus Christ, my sacrifice
How I need to find Your grace again
And nothing I can do
Could add to all You’ve done
So let my soul be satisfied
As I receive Your favour, I will overcome
So in my life be glorified
Jesus Christ my perfect Priest
How You understand my weaknesses
Thank You for Your gift to me
Through Your sufferings
I now possess this peace
Paul Oakley
