I know that I am a sinner There's no righteousness found in me On my own, I'm doomed to die in the fire My only hope is Jesus Christ He alone is my righteousness Without his saving grace I know I am lost Alone on the mountain, I was doomed to die I cried out to Jesus to save my life He told me to: Rise, soldier of God He gave me true strength to carry on The cross will always prevail In this world or in the next, you will see Those who belong to Christ will be set free The cross will always prevail In his power you had better believe It is written that we'll have victory! I am suffering every day When I hear people profane his name Because I know the pain he went through for me Christ said if the world hates you Remember, it has hated me first These words I'll keep in my heart forever Some have declared that our defeat is near Perhaps on earth, it belongs to Satan Some have declared that we are scattered But there is a truth that they can't defeat The cross will always prevail In this world or in the next, you will see Those who belong to Christ will be set free The cross will always prevail In his power you had better believe It is written that we'll have victory! No one is their own savior Christ alone is your righteousness Without his saving grace you are lost You may think this unfair But you must know that we're all sinners Just being good is not good enough for God Alone in the dark, I know you will cry You will cry out for Jesus to save your life And just like that he will give you the strength He'll give you true strength to carry on The cross will always prevail In this world or in the next, you will see Those who belong to Christ will be set free The cross will always prevail In his power you had better believe It is written that we'll have victory!
