"oh to see the dawn of the darkest day
Christ on the road to Calvary
tried by sinful men, torn and beaten then
nailed to a cross of wood.
oh to see the pain written on Your face
bearing the awesome weight of sin
every bitter thought, every evil deed
crowning your blood-stained brow.
this the power of the cross
Christ became sin for us
took the blame, bore the wrath
we stand forgiven at the cross."
"But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, and by His scourging we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)
