[Verse 1] I saw the wood stand still Under a sky torn wide You took the weight of shame With thorns against Your brow The hammer shook the air The people held their breath And mercy met the nails On a hill called death [Pre-Chorus] But the blood kept speaking Louder than the pain And the dark kept folding At the sound of Your name [Chorus] God on the cross You stayed for me God on the cross You set me free Nails in Your hands Love in Your eyes God on the cross You gave me life [Verse 2] The curtain split in two The grave began to shake A guilty heart like mine Was never meant to break Yet there You hung for us Still choosing every wound The stone was not the end When Heaven moved [Pre-Chorus] Now every wounded soul Can run into the light ‘Cause what was meant for loss Turned into living life [Chorus] God on the cross You stayed for me God on the cross You set me free Nails in Your hands Love in Your eyes God on the cross You gave me life [Bridge] When I was far away You were closer than my fear When I had nothing left You were already here So I will lift my hands And I will sing it true The cross was not defeat It was Your love breaking through [Final Chorus] God on the cross You stayed for me God on the cross You set me free Nails in Your hands Love in Your eyes God on the cross You gave me life God on the cross You stayed for me God on the cross You set me free
