Verse 1
The place you least want to go
Is where you need to be
It’s in the space between two crooks
The ground of being

Chorus
On the cross

Verse 2
Thorns twist into a crown
And press into a holy mind
King of Kings on a manmade throne
The Son of God lifted high, so high…

Chorus
On the cross, oh
On the cross, where Heaven touches Earth
On the cross, in His loving sacrifice, oh

Verse 3
It’s the deadwood crafted sin by sin
Turned by Him into a Tree of Life
It’s the place of man’s darkest hour
But of God’s brightest light, so bright…

Chorus
On the cross, oh
On the cross, where Heaven touches Earth
On the cross, in His loving sacrifice, oh

Bridge
Why did He take that cup
Filled by you and me in our fall?
Oh, that in His love God will be
All in all…

Chorus
On the cross
Heaven touches Earth on the cross

On the cross, oh
On the cross, where Heaven touches Earth
On the cross, oh, on the cross

On the cross, hmmm, on the cross
Heaven touches Earth on the cross
His love for you and me was on the cross
