Good Friday

As I was thinking upon the life of Christ today and the Amazing love and grace that He gives us each day. I was reminded of this wonderful song "The Power of the Cross" By: Keith and Kristyn Getty. I love how it shows the wonderful work of Christ here on earth, fulfilling the will of Father, and bringing man closer to Him. How through the death we are forgiven and have eternal life with God our Heavenly Father. What an amazing work Christ did for me to be in His Kingdom forever.

Oh, to see the dawn

Of the darkest day:

Christ on the road to Calvary.

Tried by sinful men,

Torn and beaten, then

Nailed to a cross of wood.

CHORUS:

This, the pow'r of the cross:

Christ became sin for us;

Took the blame, bore the wrath—

We stand forgiven at the cross.

Oh, to see the pain

Written on Your face,

Bearing the awesome weight of sin.

Ev'ry bitter thought,

Ev'ry evil deed

Crowning Your bloodstained brow.

Now the daylight flees;

Now the ground beneath

Quakes as its Maker bows His head.

Curtain torn in two,

Dead are raised to life;

"Finished!" the vict'ry cry.

Oh, to see my name

Written in the wounds,

For through Your suffering I am free.

Death is crushed to death;

Life is mine to live,

Won through Your selfless love.

FINAL CHORUS:

This, the pow'r of the cross:

Son of God—slain for us.

What a love! What a cost!

We stand forgiven at the cross.

 

I hope you enjoy your Easter weekend as we celebrate the death and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ.
