By the Cross

VERSE 1

  B                      E   B

Long my soul has waited for you

   B                       F#

bound by sin and nature’s night

      G#m           E           B

But in the secret I will find you

    G#m  F#           B

a mighty ray of holy light
VERSE 2

B                            E    B

Oh these chains were sweetly broken

 B                         F#

Bound by shame you set me free

G#m                       E    B

Perfect love my fear was stolen

      G#m      F#           B

When Thou, my Jesus died for me
CHORUS

        E               B

By the cross of Jesus Christ

               E                      B

Every sin was bought at the highest price

                E             F# G#m

Every fear was lost every sin erased

                     E        F#       B

When Jesus took the cross He took my place
VERSE 3

 B                   E     B

All my heart I lay before Thee

    B                         F#

To sound the depths of love divine

   G#m                    E      B

So free so infinite, your glory

     G#m           E     B

That I am His and He is mine
BRIDGE

               E                  B

Then sings my soul then cries my heart

               E                F#

Till kingdom come till heavens part

          G#m      F#/A#    G#m

Till he returns or calls me home

                 E        F#     B (G#m)

I’ll praise the name of Christ alone
