Lyrics
Ephesians 2, Colossians 2:6-14
The past that held regret over my head is gone
These chains are ashes now that once were rusted on
I was a runaway now I am finally home
My mind was a ghost town haunted by yesterday
Until your hand reached down pulled me out of my grave
Into the freedom found only in Jesus’ name
I am forgiven
No longer lost
Now I am living
In the power of the cross
The Father gave His Son so I could be set free
And now the scales are gone my eyes can finally see
I’ll tell the world of all Jesus has done for me
I am forgiven
No longer lost
Now I am living
In the power of the cross
Goodbye to sorrow
Welcome my joy
Now I am living
In the power of the cross
And on that cross, His love held true
Through sacrifice, the old made new
This life I live, I live in faith
Now in Jesus name
I am forgiven
No longer lost
Now I am living
In the power of the cross
Goodbye to sorrow
Welcome my joy
Now I am living
In the power of the cross
Thank you, Oh God I thank you
Jesus I thank you, thank you for the cross
Praise you, Oh God I praise You
Jesus I praise You, praise You for the cross
