V4.5+

(verse 1) I bow before the cross Where my Savior bled and died He carried all my sins He sacrificed His life (verse 2) I weep when I consider The price that He has paid To wipe away my guilt And cover all my shame (chorus) The cross is empty, but my heart is full My soul is overwhelmed with gratitude No more will I just barely survive The old man is gone and the new alive (verse 3) I wait in silent prayer Hoping His words were true He said that He would rise That He would come back to life (chorus) The cross is empty, but my heart is full My soul is overwhelmed with gratitude No more will I just barely survive The old man is gone and the new alive (pre-Bridge) For three long days I prayed Then the stone was rolled away I looked to see the empty tomb And the grave clothes where He lay Then I turned and saw His face And He said don’t be dismayed I am not dead I’m alive He said I have risen from the dead (Bridge) Alive, alive, alive My Savior is alive Alive, alive, alive The new man is alive Alive, alive, alive My Savior is alive Alive, alive, alive The new man is alive Alive, alive, alive My Savior is alive Alive, alive, alive The new man is alive (chorus) The cross is empty, but my heart is full My soul is overwhelmed with gratitude No more will I just barely survive The old man is gone and the new alive (refrain) Alive, alive, alive My Savior is alive Alive, alive, alive The new man is alive
