Beneath the Cross
Here's a quick first draft of a communion song or song of confession. Sorry to mess up the end of the chorus...guess I'm not sure how it should go.
Does it need a bridge?
I think I've stolen the melody...??
All help gratefully received!
V1] Near to the cross of our Savior
We bring our burdens of shame;
All that is broken and wanting
We lay before him, again.
V2] Baring our deep imperfections
Here, where Perfection was killed,
Pardon and love without limits
Flow through the blood that he spilled.
CH] Streams of mercy unrestrained
Tumble down like holy rain
Beneath the cross,
Beneath the cross.
Strongholds crumble, sweep away
In the rushing swells of grace
Beneath the cross,
Beneath the cross of Jesus.
V3] Here he bore cosmic rejection,
Justified wrath for mankind.
Driven to save his beloved,
Christ paid our debt with his life.
V4] Nothing can now separate us,
Neither the future nor past;
Torrents of love spring, unceasing,
From the One holding us fast.
Streams of mercy…
