LYRICS

POWER OF THE CROSS

Words and Music by Luke Munns & Andrew Bennett

VERSE 1

Praise awaits You in this House
We've come to lift a holy shout
Inhabit every note we sing
Come take Your throne O King

VERSE 2
See the giants hit the ground
As we lift a holy sound
Hear the shackles hit the floor
As the praises roar

PRE CH
If I have one more chance to sing
One final breath these lungs could bring

CHORUS
I shout Your praise
I shout Your victory
I lift Your Name
I lift the power of the cross
The battle's over
And Jesus Christ has won it all
Jesus Christ is Lord of all

VERSE 3
I speak your Word into the night
Until I see the morning light
My fears are slipping out of view
And all I see is You

BRIDGE
Every battle has been won
There's freedom in His blood
No matter where I've run
I can't escape His love
The battle's over
And Jesus Christ has won it all
The battle's over
And Jesus Christ has won it all
The battle's over
And Jesus Christ has won it all
Jesus Christ has won it all
Jesus Christ has won it all
Jesus Christ
