The power of the cross is in the blood of Christ
Given for us all the spotless sacrifice
We are now redeemed ransomed with His life
We have now received by grace
The greatest gift of love
The power of the cross oh
Son of God one of us
Bore the shame of all yet blameless
Innocent Heaven sent
Bore the sin of all yet guiltless
And He saw us here through blood-stained tears
And He said it was worth it all
Son of Man perfect Lamb
Made a way for us to know Him
By His blood we are won
Stand victorious and worship
Now He sees us free through Calvary
And He says it was worth it all
Nothing is missing
Nothing is broken
Now it is finished His blood has spoken
(REPEAT)
I am redeemed
I am set free
I am complete
By the power of the cross
I am redeemed
I am set free
I am complete by the power of
The power of the cross
