Of the darkest day

Torn and beaten then
Nailed to a cross of wood

Ev'ry bitter thought
Ev'ry evil deed
Crowning Your blood stained brow

Took the blame bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the Cross

Now the daylight flees
Now the ground beneath
Quakes as it's maker bows His head
Curtain torn in two
Dead are raised to life
Finished the vic'try cry

Took the blame bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the Cross

Written in Your wounds
For through Your suff'ring
I am free
Death is crushed to death
Life is mine to live
Won through Your selfless love

Son of God slain for us
What a love what a cost
We stand forgiven at the Cross
