[Verse]
F#m E/G# A
Oh, to see the dawn
A Esus/B A/C#
Of the darkest day;
D A/C# Bm7 E
Christ on the road to Calvary.
F#m E/G# A
Tried by sinful men,
A E/G# A/C#
Torn and beaten, then
D A/C# E
Nailed to a cross of wood.

[Chorus]
A/C# D E/G# A
This, the pow'r of the cross:
A/C# D E/G# A
Christ became sin for us;
A/C# D B/D# E
Took the blame, bore the wrath—
E/D A/D# D E A
We stand forgiven at the cross.

[Verse]
F#m E/G# A
Oh, to see the pain
A Esus/B A/C#
Written on Your face,
D A/C# Bm7 E
Bearing the awesome weight of sin.
F#m E/G# A
Ev'ry bitter thought,
A E/G# A/C#
Ev'ry evil deed
D A/C# E
Crowning Your bloodstained brow.
F#m E/G# A
Now the daylight flees;
A Esus/B A/C#
Now the ground beneath
D A/C# Bm7 E
Quakes as its Maker bows His head.
F#m E/G# A
Curtain torn in two,
A E/G# A/C#
Dead are raised to life;
D A/C# E
"Finished!" the vict'ry cry.
F#m E/G# A
Oh, to see my name
A Esus/B A/C#
Written in the wounds,
D A/C# Bm7 E
For through Your suffering I am free.
F#m E/G# A
Death is crushed to death;
A E/G# A/C#
Life is mine to live,
D A/C# E
Won through Your selfless love.

[Chorus]
A/C# D E/G# A
This, the pow'r of the cross:
A/C# D E/G# A
Son of God—slain for us.
A/C# D B/D# E
What a love! What a cost!
E/D A/D# D E A
We stand forgiven at the cross.
