Lead Me to the Cross Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Savior I come quiet my soul
Remember redemption's hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as loss


[Chorus]
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
Oh lead me lead me to the cross


[Verse 2]
You were as I tempted and trialled human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin and death
Now You're risen

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as loss
[Chorus]
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
Oh lead me lead me to the cross

[Bridge]
To Your heart
To Your heart
Lead me to Your heart
Lead me to Your heart

[Chorus]
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
Oh lead me, lead me
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
Oh lead me lead me to the cross
