The Christ of the Cross

Representative Text

There is One who was sent here to save you,
His life’s blood was shed on the cross,
He paid the price of forgiveness,
Oh, come to the Christ of the cross.

Refrain:
Come to the Savior of sinners,
Oh, come to the Christ of the cross;
No one ever loved you so dearly
As this Savior who died on the cross.

Oh, come to the Savior of sinners,
For He is truly your friend,
And God who loves all so dearly,
His Son to redeem you did send.

You may have lived very careless,
From right having wandered away,
But remember that Christ is your Savior,
Oh, come and accept Him today?
