Pam Thum - Stand By The Cross lyrics

I will stand by the cross I will not be ashamed Of the cross or the nails Or the blood or the name That gives life to a world This is hopelessly lost To show someone the way to the Lamb I will stand by the cross When the darkest hour of history ended And heaven wept upon the scene below As the soldiers and the silent crowd descended There were some who couldn't bear to go But their despair would give way To the glory soon to come And with boldness, they would say Because of what Christ has done I will stand by the cross I will not be ashamed Of the cross or the nails Or the blood or the name That gives life to a world This is hopelessly lost To show someone the way to the Lamb I will stand by the cross In the darkest days that I could have imagined Oh, my broken dreams could promise nothing more But there was love and a peace I could not fathom In a place I'd never known before And when my heart found the cross That stood where Jesus died From my knees I saw the cost And then I rose as I cried Oh, I will stand by the cross I will not be ashamed Of the cross or the nails Or the blood or the name That gives life to a world This is hopelessly lost To show someone the way to the Lamb I will stand by the cross In the shadow of the cross I will lay down my life For the sake of the Gospel of Christ I will stand by the cross I will not be ashamed Of the cross or the nails Or the blood or the name That gives life to a world This is hopelessly lost To show someone the way to the Lamb I will stand by the cross (I will stand by the cross) I'll never turn away (I will stand by the cross) (I will stand by the cross) I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus (I will stand by the cross) 'Cause it's the power of God to the world Hallelujah, praise the Lamb Hallelujah, praise the Lamb My heart sings His praise again Hallelujah, praise the Lamb Hallelujah, praise the Lamb Hallelujah, praise the Lamb My heart sings His praise again Hallelujah, praise the Lamb (Outro, hidden track) Go with God and let God go with you Walk in love in everything you do Joy, peace, health and strength Until we meet again Go with God and let God go with you
