Lyrics
Verse 1
She thinks she can't be saved
Disqualified by choices that were made
Seems destined for an early grave
Oh not today
Verse 2
He's searching for the next way out
'Cause the life he's built is burning to the ground
And the well is dry and all he sees is drought
But God You reign now so Father rain down
Chorus
You're who the cross is for
'Cause when God sees you
He sees Jesus' scars not yours
And every broken place
Is a grace-filled open door
Come as you are
You're who the cross is for
Verse 3
So if you feel alone tonight
Reminded of your sin for the millionth time
Just remember they disappeared the day He died
And when you breathe new life
You have new life!
Bridge
If you ever felt abandoned
So weak you cannot stand up
Just take His hand and know
You're who the cross is for!
Because He was forsaken
Your life will not be taken!
It's time we awaken and know
Chorus 2
We're who the cross is for
'Cause when God sees you
He sees Jesus' scars not yours
And every broken place
Is a grace-filled open door
Come as you are
You're who the cross is for
