[Andy Mineo - The Cross lyrics]
Jesus goes to the cross and
Says what? 'Its finished'
Jesus is God he lived the life we
Could never live died the
Death we should have
Died but on the cross he says
'Its finished it's all done
Every time I think about Him
I be getting so amazed by the
Grace that replaced my works
I was never deserving that
Perfect person cause
The serpent was living in me
A purge i was cursed
Since Adam ate from that Tree
Somebody got to right the debt
Cause the cost of sin is death
No matter how rich you is
You can't write the check
Somebody gotta pay the cost
Somebody's body gotta be broken a
Token taking the lost
So as you pray to Allah
Go ahead and label me wrong
I praise Jesus cause even
As we were heathens
He chose to take the cross
The Christ came and never sinned
Though He could have tried
Lived a life I could never live
Died a death I should have died
I got a humble joy i put my pride aside
Even when I stumble, boy
I know He'll still provide
Even when I wonder
Lord i know He's still alive
I'm always seeking Him more never
Feel like I've arrived
I'm still a target for sin
Satan trying to lock me in
He's trying harder he's baiting through
Apple schnapps and gin
Be the pops my oxygen he's my
(breathe in and out) yeah
So when I'm breathing I be
Defeating the views because
He keeps giving reason to suck in air
This life ain't mines i'm just
Borrowing the suit cuz
He created it, made it, decorated
And then gave it i abused it, use it
And bruised it but then he came and saved it
From my self-induced anguish, hatred
And tasteless favorites
I hope to paint this picture that'll
Pull you out that Matrix
So you can praise the Savior and
You can dance like David
So get your hands up
Cause our sins is what nailed His
Feet and His hands up
He took it on the Cross
I got problems, I got sins you can never know
We don't got to hold them we can let them go
He took it on the Cross
Hey man
I don't care where you came from or how
Much wrong you done jesus died for
Sins past, present
And future you think your good
Deeds will get you to heaven? Well
We all sinners how good is good enough?
You tell me jesus is the checkpoint
I can hear it now you
Know you're living wrong
But, you're a rapper and everyone
Want to sing your songs
Plus your paper long, and your shorty hot
And, as badly you want to change
You know you're surely not
Cause his sins have got you
You couldn't do it over
So what's the sense in saying "Sorry"
If you know you screwed up
But, if you only knew of the
Power God can give you
When you ask Him into your life
To come and live up in you
He'll take your heart of stone give
It a heart of flesh
Your body will tell you no
But His spirit saying yes
Your desires will change you'll
Be a new creation but please
Don't wait no longer ho-homie
Your life is wasted
So get your hands up
Cause our sins is what nailed His
Feet and His hands up
He took it on the Cross
I got problems, I got sins you can never know
We don't got to hold them we can let them go
He took it on the Cross
He took it on the Cross
Says what? 'Its finished'
Jesus is God he lived the life we
Could never live died the
Death we should have
Died but on the cross he says
