Lyrics

[Verse 1]
An altar built, a table spread
A tree that grew, a life was spared
Between two thorns justice was placed
Blood for the world, amazing grace
[Verse 2]
Oh, how I'm drawn to the cross alone
The place where mercy and sin atone
The place where my sins met their end
Everything changed there, the cross alone
New life begins there, the cross alone
[Verse 3]
A rigged piece of justice took
A carpenter, a Christ that would
Give up His life in exchange
For a world so lost to claim His name, sing
[Verse 4]
Oh, how I'm drawn to the cross alone
The place where mercy and sin atone
The place where my sins met their end
Everything changed there, the cross alone
New life begins there, the cross alone
[Verse 5]
There's a place in eternity
Where the love of God met humanity
On a hill called Golgotha, He bled upon a tree
And there He made the sacrifice
Just for you and me
[Verse 6]
Oh, how I'm drawn to the cross alone
The place of mercy and my sin atone (It was the place)
The place where (All of my sins) my sins met their end
Everything changed there, the cross alone (Because of Calvary)
New life begins there, the cross alone
[Verse 7]
Yes, He did, (Yes, He did) yes, He did (Yes, He did)
I know He did, mmm, yes, He did, (Yes, He did) yes, He did (Yes, He did)
Now we wanna sing a few hymns about the power of the cross
And I hope you help us sing it out there, come on
[Verse 8]
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross, yeah
Till my trophies at last I lay down (I lay them down, yeah)
I will cling to the old rugged cross
Everything changed there, the cross alone
New life begins there, (Where was it?) the cross alone
[Verse 9]
Now listen, this is the song that I got saved on
I need everybody, where ever you are
Open your mouth and declare it
[Verse 10]
At the cross, (Yeah) at the cross
Where I first saw the light
And the burdens (Every) burden of my heart
Blown away, away
It was there my faith
I received my sign
[Verse 11]
Everything changed there, the cross alone
New life begins there, the cross alone (Every little thing can change there)
Everything changed there, (At Calvary) the cross alone
New life begins there, (All lost souls, He did it) the cross alone
Changed there, (Once and for all) the cross alone
New life begins there, the cross alone
[Verse 12]
Many have come there and seen the light
Met all their wrongs there and made them right
Propitiation for perfect love
There's still He room there, will there be one?
There is room at the cross for you
[Verse 13]
Galatians 6 and 14 says
"May I not boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ
Through which the world has been crucified to Me and I to the world"
[Verse 14]
And everything changed there, at the cross, at the cross
New life begins there (Yeah, and He took my sins away)
Everything changed there, at the cross, (Yeah) at the cross
New life begins there (Oh, my, my)
[Verse 15]
Listen, did He save you? (Yes, He did)
Did He raise you? (Yes, He did)
And take away your guilt, disdain?(Yes, He did)
Did He free you? (Yes, He did)
Did He clean you?
Did He give you a brighter day? Yeah
[Verse 16]
Did He wash you? (Yes, He did)
Make you clean? (Yes, He did)
Break the chains off of your mind? (Yes, He did)
Give you victory over the enemy (Yes, He did)
And  He gave new life sublime?
[Verse 17]
Everything changed there, at the cross, at the cross
New life begins there, (A brand new life) at the cross, at the cross
Everything changed there, at the cross, (Yeah) at the cross
New life begins there, at the cross, at the cross (I got a, I got a, I got a, new life)
[Verse 18]
Listen, when sin (Yes, He did)
Thought it hurt me (Yes, He did)
God have the master plan (Yes, He did)
Do redeem my poor soul (Yes, He did)
And the cross and with the Lamb
He hung (Yes, He did)
For our salvation (Yes, He did)
He bled from my new creation (Yes, He did)
Stayed for my regeneration (Yes, He did)
And conquered death, now I gotta tell the nation (Yes, He did)
Yes, He did, (Yes, He did) yes, He did (Yes, He did)
I know He did, (Yes, he did), yeah (Yes, He did)
Yes, He did, (Yes, He did)
There is room for you
There is room for you
