Lead me to the cross.



Savior I come
Quiet my soul remember
Redemption's hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost

Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Lead me, lead me to the cross

You were as I
Tempted and trialed
Human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin in death
Now you're risen

To your heart
To your heart
Lead me to your heart
Lead me to your heart

Indeed, it is not about us, but about God.
It's not about what we do, but its about our heart, that is aligned with God's heart.
Lead me to the cross. Lead me to your heart.
Teach me to surrender. What I most do not want to let go.
Help me to walk in the freedom of knowing that You know.
Lead me to the cross. Where I lay my burdens down.
The world is under your feet.
And I have the victory.
Because You have overcome the world.

When I am feeling dry, draw me to the cross, where I continue to focus on You and not my circumstances.
When I feel insecure and start being envious of the success of others, turn my eyes back to You, where my eternal treasure resides.
When I am faced with stress that I know I can't bear, let the hope of the cross consume me, knowing that You have given me victory, and I can do all things because You strengthen me.
When I feel that no one cares, draw me back to the cross, where You showed me just how much I matter to You, and how great Your love is.
