Oh to See the Dawn (The Power of the Cross) 
Stuart Townsend & Keith Getty
(Capo 3)

Intro

Verse 1
Oh to see the dawn of the darkest day 
Christ on the road to cal  -  va  -  ry 
Tried by sinful men, torn and beaten then 
Nailed to a cross   of    wood. 

Chorus 1
This the pow’r of the cross: 
Christ became sin for us, 
Took the blame, bore the wrath. 
We  stand forgiven at          the cross. 


Verse 2
Oh to see the pain written on Your face, 
Bearing the awesome weight of       sin. 
Ev’ry   bitter thought, ev’ry evil    deed – 
Crowning Your blood - stained brow.

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Verse 3
Now the daylight flees; now the ground beneath 
Quakes as its Maker bows his        head. 
Curtain torn in two, dead are raised to life
‘Finished!’ the vict’  -  ry       cry.

Verse 4
Oh to see my name written in the wound 
For through Your suf‘fring I      am       free 
Death is crushed to death, life is mine to live 
Won through Your self  -  less     love 

Chorus 2
This the pow’r of the cross 
Son of God slain for us 
What a life, what a cost 
We stand forgiven at       the cross 

 
Oh, to see the dawn
Of the darkest day:
Christ on the road to Calvary.
Tried by sinful men,
Torn and beaten, then
Nailed to a cross of wood.

CHORUS:
This, the pow'r of the cross:
Christ became sin for us;
Took the blame, bore the wrath-
We stand forgiven at the cross.

Oh, to see the pain
Written on Your face,
Bearing the awesome weight of sin.
Ev'ry bitter thought,
Ev'ry evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow. 

Now the daylight flees;
Now the ground beneath
Quakes as its Maker bows His head.
Curtain torn in two,
Dead are raised to life;
"Finished!" the vict'ry cry. 

Oh, to see my name
Written in the wounds,
For through Your suffering I am free.
Death is crushed to death;
Life is mine to live,
Won through Your selfless love.

This, the pow'r of the cross:
Son of God-slain for us 
What a love! What a cost! 
We stand forgiven at the cross.
