Take Me to the Cross

Show me all the sacred places
Show me where my faith was born
Show me where my heroes
Lived the life I’m longing for
Lead me to that ancient city
Where the blood of prophets runs
Lead me to His temple
Take me to Jerusalem
Take me to the manger so humble
Take me to the streets where He walked
Take me where the grand teacher taught us
Take me to the cross
Lead me to the tomb of rejoicing
Show me where my freedom was fought
Show me where my sin was forgiven
Take me to the cross
Help me know and love His people
Help me see His divine plan
Help me have the courage
To be more than what I am
Keep me looking for His coming
Crashing through both time and space
Keep me as a beggar
Longing for a taste of grace
Take me to the manger so humble
Take me to the streets where He walked
Take me where the grand teacher taught us
Take me to the cross
Lead me to the tomb of rejoicing
Show me where my freedom was fought
Show me where my sin was forgiven
Take me to the cross
Ancient mystery, human history
Here beneath my feet
Precious story, saving glory
Cries out from these streets
Show me all the sacred places
Show me where my faith was born
Show me where my heroes
Lived the life I’m longing for
Take me to the manger so humble
Take me to the streets where He walked
Take me where the grand teacher taught us
Take me to the cross
Lead me to the tomb of rejoicing
Show me where my freedom was fought
Show me where my sin was forgiven
Take me to the cross
