God Gave The Cross

Words and Music by Barry & Terri Collecutt Copyright ©2002

Verse 1

God so loved the world

That He gave His only Son for us

That we might believe

Not die but live for eternity

Verse 2

Jesus gave His life

Became man left His place in heaven behind

He humbled Himself

To death, even death on a cross

Chorus

God gave the cross

And the cross gave God to me

God gave the cross

And the cross has set me free

God gave the cross

And the cross gave God to me

I believe, I believe

Verse 3

O death, where’s your sting

No grave could hold my risen King

He’s coming again

And we will reign with Him

Bridge

Your cross sets me free
