Made of wood, built by man There it stood, salvation's plan Adam's fall and my own sin It was all placed on Him Without the cross I would not know Redeeming love that sought my soul Without the blood, where would I be I would be lost without the cross Mercy spilled blood divine On Calvary's hill for all mankind Flowing through the ages past Destined to reach me at last Bridge I can't repay Him for the grace He poured out on that tree But I'll live my life for Jesus Christ For all He's done for me Without the cross I would not know Redeeming love that sought my soul Without the blood where would I be I would be lost without the cross At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light And the burden of my heart rolled away It was there by faith I received my sight And now I am happy all the day Without the blood where would I be I would be lost I would be lost without the cross
