Another night I didn't at all feel like staying for choir...another night I'm glad I did. So needed to just immerse myself in these words for a while tonight....
Power of the Cross
Once in darkness now in light
Once blind now you see
Once a sinner now a saint
Once bound now free.
[CHORUS:]
That's the power of the Cross
Once blind now you see
Once a sinner now a saint
Once bound now free.
[CHORUS:]
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
That's the power of the Cross
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
Once a stranger now a child
Empty now filled
Once condemned now reconciled
Broken now healed
[CHORUS:]
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
Once a prodigal now home
Once lost now found
Once and enemy now a friend
Once poor now crowned
[CHORUS:]
That's the power of the Cross
Once a stranger now a child
Empty now filled
Once condemned now reconciled
Broken now healed
[CHORUS:]
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
Once a prodigal now home
Once lost now found
Once and enemy now a friend
Once poor now crowned
[CHORUS:]
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall
That's the power of the Cross
That's the power of the Cross
See the chains fall!
~Shelly E. Johnson
This is not my favorite arrangement of this song, but it is the only one I could find. :)

I almost skipped choir because the youth/parent meeting before it was to announce our youth pastor's resignation--which means my friend, his wife, moving. But like you, I found myself being ministered to through the songs -- Great is His faithfulness!
Seems like the times it's hardest for me to go are the times I need to be there the most. Praying for you as your friend leaves...that is so hard!
