Lyrics
Here stripped of all but blood and shame,
The Lord of Lords, Christ crucified!
Here crowned with thorns and robed with pain,
The King of Kings, Christ crucified!
Now hung upon His throne,
Rejected, cursed, alone,
In hatred hoisted high
Against a blackened sky,
Our dying God, the glorious Son!
Our Way, our Truth, our Life Divine,
Our Broken Bread, Christ crucified.
Our Light, our Door and Living Vine,
Our Servant King, Christ crucified.
Our calling now is clear.
The life we seek is here.
Our standard is the cross.
We follow, gain or loss.
Our goal: to glorify His name.
All power, riches, wisdom, might
Be Yours alone, Christ crucified!
Each burning hope, each heart’s delight
Is full in You, Christ crucified.
With all our hearts we sing
Our Lord, our God, our King!
We fill our endless days
With endless lives of praise,
O Lamb of God, Christ crucified!
