Hope of a Cross

The days were dark, the nights were long

There was no hope. It all went wrong

Digging my heels, spinning my wheels

unable to move, so much to lose

All seemed lost; then came the cross.

There’s hope of a Savior, His saving favor

When we’ve exhausted our options

with nowhere to turn,

There’s hope of a cross

Rescue of peace

Rescue of life

Rescue of strength

found in the cross of Jesus Christ

Everything was lost,

but hope came from a cross

heartbreak began mending  

The Son dried the rain

The night became daylight

Joy came from pain

All seemed lost; then came the cross.

There’s hope of a Savior, His saving favor

When we’ve exhausted our options

with nowhere to turn,

There’s hope of a cross
