We will be learning “Hallelujah for the Cross” in February. Below are the lyrics and a YouTube video of Kevin and Liz introducing the song for us. If we each listen several times before Sunday we will be able to gather and sing this with all our hearts unto the Lord!

 

Up to the hill of Calvary

My Savior went courageously

and there he bled and died for me

Hallelujah for the cross

And on that day the world was changed

A final, perfect lamb was slain

Let earth and heaven now proclaim

Hallelujah for the cross

Hallelujah for the war He fought

Love has won, death has lost

Hallelujah for the souls He bought

Hallelujah for the cross

What good I’ve done could never save

My debt too great for deeds to pay

But God, my Savior, made a way

Hallelujah for the cross

A slave to sin, my life was bound

But all my chains fell to the ground

When Jesus’ blood came flowing down

Hallelujah for the cross

 

(Chorus)

 

Hallelujah, hallelujah

And when I breathe my final breath

I’ll have no need to fear that rest

This hope will guide me into death

Hallelujah for the cross

Hallelujah for the cross

Hallelujah for the cross
