Oh The Cross Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir
Carol Cymbala, Onaje Jefferson and Jason Michael Webb
Verse 1 (solo)
My longing for love wouldn't go away
I was desperate searching
Broken by pain
Looking for answers
But nothing seemed right
Where was my answer
What was my life
Blinded by sin I was lost couldn't see
Until I turned my eyes to Calvary
Chorus (1st time solo only)
Oh the cross
where Jesus died
He shed His blood
Gave His life for you and I
My sins erased no longer lost
My debt was paid I am saved
Oh the cross
Verse 2 (solo)
Day after day as I live my life
I find heartache trouble
Battles to fight
When fear tries to grip me
And I feel alone
Jesus is with me
I'm not on my own
Now I can say in my heart I believe
My life has been changed
Because of Calvary
