[Refrain]
By the cross of Christ, He gave us new life,
He cleansed us from our sins and brought salvation to our lives.
By the cross of Christ, He brought us new light,
He suffered the pain when He offered His life
To the world on the cross when He died.

[Verse]
Touch us with your spirit, Lord,
Forgive all our sins and wash away our tears.
In your hands we raise our hearts,
Use us, Lord Jesus Christ.

[Refrain]
By the cross of Christ, He gave us new life,
He cleansed us from our sins and brought salvation to our lives.
By the cross of Christ, He brought us new light,
He suffered the pain when He offered His life
To the world on the cross when He died.

[Bridge]
Hold us with your hands, O Lord,
Embrace us with your arms and protect us with your love.
In your cross we lift our lives,
Bless us with eternal life.
