Embrace the cross

You came to earth and ransomed my soul
To pay the debt for my sinful choices
You embraced the cross and made it Your joy
To take up my sin You laid down Your glory

I embrace the cross
I embrace the cross

May You be glorified may You be lifted high
May You be magnified high above all things
For all the world to see all of Your majesty
All the compassion that waits at the cross

The blood from Your cross covers my life
And what once was darkness it has become light
The light of Your glory, a light to the world
A light that shines freedom, a light that shines hope.
