THE CROSS HAS SAID IT ALL
The cross has said it all.
I can’t deny what You have shown,
The cross speaks of a God of love;
There displayed for all to see,
Jesus Christ, our only hope,
A message of the Father’s heart:
‘Come, my children, come on home.’
As high as the heavens are above the earth,
So high is the measure of Your great love;
As far as the east is from the west,
So far have You taken our sins from us.
(Repeat)
The cross has said it all,
The cross has said it all.
I never recognised Your touch
Until I met You at the cross;
We are fallen, dust to dust,
How could You do this for us?
Son of God shed precious blood:
Who can comprehend this love?
How high, how wide, how deep;(Repeat x4)
How high!
Matt Redman & Martin Smith
