Man on the Middle Cross

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I heard the preacher talking About three wooden crosses Up on a hill for everyone to see Two sinners on the outside Couldn't save themselves if they tried All I could think is man that sounds like me [Chorus] I've been the one on the left full of guilt and regret Long-gone on the wrong side of living I've been the one on the right always looking for a fight Thinking I could never be forgiven I'm standing here today overwhelmеd by grace 'Cause I know who paid my cost Thank God for the Man on thе middle cross [Verse 2] He didn't have to do it But for me He went through it A love like that I'll never understand Lord knows I don't deserve it And I know I couldn't earn it Let mercy rain down on this desperate Man [Chorus] I've been the one on the left full of guilt and regret Long-gone on the wrong side of living I've been the one on the right always looking for a fight Thinking I could never be forgiven I'm standing here today overwhelmed by grace 'Cause I know who paid my cost Thank God for the Man on the middle cross [Bridge] The cross is where He went Oh, but that ain't where He stayed He brought me back to life When He rose up out of that grave Someday I'll stand before Him And I'll see Jesus face to face I'll worship and adore Him For a life forever changed [Chorus] I've been the one on the left full of guilt and regret Long-gone on the wrong side of living I've been the one on the right always looking for a fight Thinking I could never be forgiven I'm standing here today overwhelmed by grace 'Cause I know who paid my cost Thank God for the Man on the middle cross [Outro] Thank God for the Man on the middle cross
