It’s Your love that took our place
It’s Your blood that gives us liberty
We are thankful for the cross
On the cross mercy was revealed
For the cost there You died and rose again
We are thankful for the cross
By Your blood we stand forgiven
You have overcome now we are living
In the light of all You’ve done
To everything You are
We surrender we surrender
Because of You death is known no more
Jesus you are the one we’re living for
We are thankful for the cross
Only through the cross
We are saved
Only through the cross
