Rude Cruz

The rude cross stood tall
From it, the day slipped away
Like a symbol of shame and pain
But I love this cross
Because on it, Jesus
Gave His life for me, a sinner

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross (my cross)
Until I trade it for a crown

From the glory of heaven
The Lamb of God
Came down to the humiliating Calvary
He has the cross for me
Endless attractions
Because from it, Jesus saved me

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross (my cross)
Until I trade it for a crown

There on the cross, He suffered
Despised, He died
My Jesus, to give me forgiveness
From it now comes all the good for me
In it, I have real salvation

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross (my cross)
Until I trade it for a crown

Here with Jesus
The shame of the cross
I always want to bear and suffer
When Christ returns
To take me back
I will receive His glory

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross (my cross)
Until I trade it for a crown
