I'll Never Forget The Cross
(Words by Ray Allen Kayanek)

holding Your brokeness between my fingertips
feeling Your pain and agony
seeing Your suffering as they puinished You
when they should've punished me

unworthy of Your sacrifice as You paid a price
You knew no one else could pay
Tasting the Mercy that gave away Your life
so my sins would wash away

I'll never forget the Cross
I'll never forget how You died
when You took my place that day
willing to be crucified
as I come to Your table
humbly I say
I'll never forget the Cross
where You died for me that day

holding the cup of wrath between my fingertips
tasting the torment that You felt
wondering how much Blood You had to shed for me
before my sins began to melt
knowing You could've called angels to Your aid
but You faced it on Your own
for You knew that it was the only way
I would ever make it home

I'll never forget the Cross
I'll never forget how You died
when You took my place that day
willing to be crucified
as I come to Your table
humbly I say
I'll never forget the Cross
where You died for me that day

so I'll cherish the Old Rugged Cross
til' my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the Old Rugged Cross
and exchange it someday for a crown

I'll never forget the Cross
I'll never forget how You died
when You took my place that day
willing to be crucified
as I come to Your table
humbly I say
I'll never forget the Cross
where You died for me that day
