When I’m standing in the shadow of the cross
I know there must be light beyond
So I will look beyond the cross
To find understanding for which I have longed.
As by faith my gaze passes through the cross
I am met with a wonderful sight
For there in magnificent glory
Stands Christ Jesus in dazzling white.
I know it is Him by the scars he has
He beckons and holds out His hand
Then as I look into His loving face
I move forward and am able to stand.
I am able to stand before Almighty God
Because of his incredible plan
To redeem and restore his creation
Through the resurrection of His Son, become man.
