Lead Me to the Cross

Lead Me to the Cross

How can I be free from sin?Lead me to the cross of Jesus

     From the guilt, the power, the pain?

     Lead me to the cross of Jesus

     There's no other way

     No price that I could pay

     Simply to the cross I cling

     This is all I need

     This is all I plead

     That his blood was shed for me         

How can I know peace within?

     Lead me to the cross of Jesus

     Sing a song of joy again!

     Lead me to the cross of Jesus...Read more
