The Cross Forever Speaks

Though I’m pressed on every side
I still know I’m not abandoned
Though the ways of God aren’t mine
I still know I’m not forsaken

Take all the breath in my lungs
You’ll hear the rocks crying glory to God
Take everything that I’ve got
And you’ll see two empty hands lifted up
You may silence me
The cross forever speaks

Though I’m filled with questions why
I still know I’m not abandoned
Though I suffer in this life
I still know I’m not forsaken

Take all the breath in my lungs
You’ll hear the rocks crying glory to God
Take everything that I’ve got
And you’ll see two empty hands lifted up
You may silence me
The cross forever speaks

Forgiveness for
My enemies
Mercy and grace
I am set free

The price of love
Is paid in full
His blood poured out
How beautiful

Take all the breath in my lungs
You’ll hear the rocks crying glory to God
Take everything that I’ve got
And you’ll see two empty hands lifted up
You may silence me
You may silence me
You may silence me
The cross forever speaks
