"In The Shadow Of The Cross" lyrics

"In The Shadow Of The Cross"

In the time of the upside down
Many call the devil boss
Confused about who wears the crown?
In the shadow, in the shadow of the cross

Jesus wept, but no one saw
The wind that swept on the coin he tossed
Breaking every sinner's jaw
In the shadow, in the shadow of the cross

Jesus will return
Sunlight on the lessons we all learn
And the devil's world will only burn
The body into ashes for the urn

Maybe you don't know Him yet
Life for you is a holocaust
A sideways look in a scammer's bed
In the shadow, in the shadow of the cross

But there's so much more than that
Redemption here for every loss
As the snake chokes on a rat
In the shadow, in the shadow of the cross

Jesus will return
Sunlight on the lessons we all learn
And the devil's world will only burn
The body into ashes for the urn

Salvation used to be a dream
As the guilt made us fall
But we can still hear the prophets scream
In the shadow, in the shadow of the cross
In the shadow, in the shadow of the cross
