Verse 1:
G C2(no3) G
This is the message of the cross, that we can be free
C2(no3) G
To live in the victory and turn from our sin.
A7sus C2(no3) G
My precious Lord Jesus with sinners you died.
A7sus C2(no3) G
For there you revealed your love and you laid down your life.
Verse 2:
This is the message of the cross, that we can be free.
To lay all our burdens here at the foot of the tree.
The cross was the shame of the world
But the glory of God
For Jesus, You conquered sin and You gave us new life.

You set us free when we come to the cross.

even bigger than they are already. Keep an eye out for them. The track
