Wednesday in Holy Week

Thank you for the cross Lord / Worthy is the Lamb by Darlene Zschech

Thank you for the cross Lord
Thank you for the price You paid

Bearing all my sin and shame

In love You came

And gave amazing grace


Thank you for this love Lord

Thank you for the nail pierced hands

Washed me in Your cleansing flow

Now all I know
Your forgiveness and embrace

Chorus:

Worthy is the Lamb

Seated on the throne

Crown You now with many crowns

You reign victorious

High and lifted up

Jesus Son of God

The Darling of Heaven crucified [or: The Treasure of Heaven crucified]


Worthy is the Lamb

Worthy is the Lamb


Bridge:

Worthy is the Lamb

Worthy is the Lamb

When I read "Thank you for the cross" I thought it must be this, rather lovely, song.

Thanks Suem - I think you have given me Friday's song :)

One really needs to hear these songs sung to appreciate the depth of their sincerity. I must say, I found Suem's contribution very moving. It did remind me of my far-off days with the St.Paul's Singers at Symonds Street.

I hope onlookers tap onto it:

Now this is 'Gospel' at it's best!

A meaningful Triduum, everyone.

Indeed, Ron!

Thanks for posting this choice, Peter. I had to take it back and post it myself (along with one other)
