Song Lyrics


What The Cross Really Is
by Brian Free & Assurance

Album: Looks Like Jesus


Everyone sees a cross For what it is
It's not a place of hope
It's a place of suffering
Everyone sees a grave for what it is
It's not a door to victory its a final ending
But when a savior chooses to make a sacrifice
It shows me what Calvary really looks like

It Looks like shackles being broken
Like burdens being lifted
Like sinners finally free from their guilt and shame
Looks like hope that's never ending
Like darkness into blessing
I pray that I never miss
What the cross really is

Lord you gave me new eyes so I could see
All of your mercies right there in front of me
Let my faith walk on water let the world finally see
That its you that they're seeing when they're looking at me

It Looks like shackles being broken
Like burdens being lifted
Like sinners finally free from their guilt and shame
Looks like hope that's never ending
Like darkness into blessing
I pray that I never miss
What the cross really is

Its where I first saw the light
Where you laid down your life
And my burdens all washed away
Its where my sin couldn't hide
From my savior who died
So that I would know what a sacrifice really looks like

It Looks like shackles being broken
Like burdens being lifted
Like sinners finally free from their guilt and shame
Looks like hope that's never ending
Like darkness into blessing
I pray that I never miss
What the cross really is
What the cross really is
What the cross really is
