Cross Of Christ
On Calvary's mountain Hope was born
God Himself the Sacrifice
He carried sin, it's grief and scorn
Up on the precious cross of Christ
I have not seen this rugged wood
(Where my Jesus bled and died)
To which my Savior was enticed
(On the cross, the cross of Christ)
But hopeless hearts were changed for good
(Where my Jesus bled and died)
Up on the precious cross of Christ
(On the cross, the cross of Christ)
Chorus:
Oh Blessed Hope, unbounded grace
When all our good would not suffice
He challenged darkness face to face
Up on the precious cross of Christ
There is a joy that's found within
those who are born not once but twice
(On the cross, the cross of Christ)
For they have learned that life begins
Up on the precious cross of Christ
(On the cross, the cross of Christ)
Chorus
Hook:
He challenged darkness face to face
up on the precious cross of Christ
(On the cross, the cross of Christ)
Up on the precious cross of Christ
Up on the precious cross of Christ!
On Calvary's mountain Hope was born
Up on the precious cross of Christ!
Cruz de Cristo
Na montanha do Calvário, a Esperança nasceu
Deus mesmo, o Sacrifício
Ele carregou o pecado, sua dor e desprezo
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo
Eu não vi essa madeira rústica
(Onde meu Jesus sangrou e morreu)
Para a qual meu Salvador foi atraído
(Na cruz, a cruz de Cristo)
Mas corações sem esperança foram transformados para sempre
(Onde meu Jesus sangrou e morreu)
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo
(Na cruz, a cruz de Cristo)
Refrão:
Oh, Esperança Bendita, graça sem limites
Quando todo o nosso bem não seria suficiente
Ele desafiou a escuridão cara a cara
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo
Há uma alegria que se encontra dentro
Aqueles que nascem não uma, mas duas vezes
(Na cruz, a cruz de Cristo)
Pois eles aprenderam que a vida começa
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo
(Na cruz, a cruz de Cristo)
Refrão
Refrão:
Ele desafiou a escuridão cara a cara
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo
(Na cruz, a cruz de Cristo)
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo!
Na montanha do Calvário, a Esperança nasceu
Na preciosa cruz de Cristo!
