The past that held regret over my head is gone
These chains are ashes now that once were rusted on
I was a runaway now I am finally home

My mind was a ghost town haunted by yesterday 
Until Your hand reached down, pulled me out of my grave
Into the freedom found only in Jesus’ name

I am forgiven 
No longer lost
Now I am living
In the power of the cross

The Father gave His Son so I could be set free
And now the scales are gone my eyes can finally see
I’ll tell the world of all Jesus has done for me

I am forgiven 
No longer lost
Now I am living
In the power of the cross

Goodbye to sorrow 
Welcome my joy
Now I am living
In the power of the cross

And on that cross, His love held true
Through sacrifice, the old made new
This life I live, I live in faith
Now in Jesus name

I am forgiven 
No longer lost
Now I am living
In the power of the cross

Goodbye to sorrow 
Welcome my joy
Now I am living
In the power of the cross

Thank You, oh God I thank You
Jesus, I thank You, thank You for the cross
Praise You, oh God I praise You
Jesus, I praise You, praise You for the cross
