I Am The Cross

Written by: William Carroll Cook, Angela Cook, Pattie Mock, Kenny Mock

Publishing by: 221st Street Music LLC / BMI

VERSE 1

DEATH ON ME, HIS DESTINY

CHRIST WOULD DIE TO SET MAN FREE

I STOOD AND WATCHED THE CROWD PROCLAIM

FROM AN UNJUST TRIAL, HE WOULD DIE IN SHAME

VERSE 2

NAILS HELD HIS HANDS AND FEET

SACRIFICED FOR ALL TO SEE

AND WITH HIS ARMS HELD OPEN WIDE

THE LAMB OF GOD WAS CRUCIFIED

CHORUS

ANGRY CROWDS SHOUT CRUCIFY!

HE HUNG ON ME, CONDEMNED TO DIE

HE TOOK THEIR PLACE, HE PAID THE COST

I CRUCIFIED HIM…I AM THE CROSS

VERSE 3

HE HUNG ON ME UNTIL HIS DEATH

I FELT HIM TAKE HIS FINAL BREATH

OH, THE PAIN I WATCHED HIM BARE

THE GUILTLESS ONE WHO CHOSE TO CARE

CHORUS

ANGRY CROWDS SHOUT CRUCIFY!

HE HUNG ON ME, CONDEMNED TO DIE

HE TOOK THEIR PLACE, HE PAID THE COST

I CRUCIFIED HIM…I AM THE CROSS

BRIDGE

WHERE ONCE I STOOD FOR PAIN AND DEATH,

NOW I STAND FOR VICTORY

A SYMBOL OF THE FATHER’S LOVE,

DISPLAYED FOR ALL TO SEE

CHORUS

I AM THE CROSS WHERE JESUS DIED

HE HUNG ON ME TO GIVE YOU LIFE

HE TOOK YOUR PLACE, HE PAID THE COST

GOD’S GIFT OF MERCY WAS THE CROSS

TAG

HE TOOK YOUR PLACE, HE PAID THE COST

GOD’S GIFT OF MERCY WAS THE CROSS

…

THANK YOU FOR THE CROSS,

THANK YOU FOR THE CROSS.
