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

Flowing from above

All-forgiving love 

From the Father’s heart to me! 

What a gift of grace 

His own righteousness 

Clothing me in purity!

How can I live day by day? 

Lead me to the cross of Jesus 

Following his narrow way? 

Lead me to the cross of Jesus
