On the Road to the Cross Lyrics

On the road to the Cross

Walked our dear Lord

Carrying our sin and our shame

The big cross was heavy, 

and a crown full of thorns 

Was put on His head and His brow

His cross was to shame

And to humiliate 

But the evil and pain, that was all mine to bare

And the sins on His back, He carried for my sake.. On the road to the Cross..

On the road to the Cross

Walked our beloved 

Up the hill and towards

Golgotha 

The sun shielded her light

Only darkness in sight

And the friends ran away

Trembling 

And the pain of betrayal 

Was far worse than the nails

That pierced His hands, and His feet and side

And the sins on His back, He carried for my sake.. On the road to the Cross

On the road to the cross 

Unto the judgment day

I will not ever be put to shame

My cross I’ll carry 

And my crown I will wear

On my head with joy and honor

For this cross will be, unto me, a blessing 

For I’m ready to die for the world

And for you...

And the sins on His back, He carried for my sake.. On the road to the Cross
