Lyrics

I heard shame told you a story
That you can’t escape your past
That the innocence you lost
There’s no way to get it back

I heard fear sold you some fiction
You bought everything he had
Made you too afraid to live
And kept your heart under attack

They say you’re too guilty for His grace
You’re too far gone and now you’re too late

But the cross says they’re wrong
Don’t believe the words they say
Let the truth wash them away
Cause His blood says you’re loved
Every lie is bound to leave
When there’s nothing you believe but the cross

I’ve been right there where you’re standing
All those things they told me too
That I was out of second chances
And I was only born to lose
They said I was born to lose

But the cross says they’re wrong
Don’t believe the words they say
Let the truth wash them away
Cause His blood says you’re loved
Every lie is bound to leave
When there’s nothing you believe but the cross

Shame tells me I’m broken,
But I know I’m forgiven
Fear tells me it’s over,
But this is the beginning
Oh, They can say whatever they want
Oh, They can say whatever they want

But the cross says they’re wrong
I don’t believe the words they say
Cause the truth washed them away
Oh, His blood says I’m loved
Every lie is bound to leave
When there’s nothing we believe
But the cross I know I’m forgiven
But the cross
This is the beginning
But the cross
