Beneath the Cross

Music and words by Keith and Kristyn Getty


Beneath the cross of Jesus
I find a place to stand,
And wonder at such mercy
That calls me as I am.
For hands that should discard me
Hold wounds which tell me come.
My unworthy soul is won.

Beneath the cross of Jesus, His family is my own.
Once strangers chasing selfish dreams,
Now one through grace alone.
How could I now dishonor
The ones that You have loved.
Beneath the cross of Jesus,
See the children called by God.

Beneath the cross of Jesus,
The path before the crown,
We follow in His footsteps
Where promised hope is found.
How great the joy before us
To be His perfect bride.
We will gladly live our lives.
