The symbol of the crucified
Became the symbol of eternal life
When perfect love was sacrificed for us

‘Cause we were captive to the grave
But now the stone has rolled away
‘Cause Jesus conquered death to save
Oh, what love

CHORUS
What could break
What could ever separate
All you've done from us
Tell me who could shake
Who could ever take away the power of the cross

The strength that sets the captive free
Is the very strength that we’ve received
Restoring us when we are weak
You lift us up, you lift us up

CHORUS

Is power to save
And make a way, make a way
Jesus, you came
To take our place
You took our place

CHORUS

Behind the Song:
'So many people wear crosses around their neck without really knowing what it means, but the fact is, the cross is a symbol of what gives us life- a crucified and risen Christ. If He would’ve stayed in the grave, it wouldn’t have meant anything, but He died and rose again and is the Savior of the world, which is what this song is all about.' - Adam Klutinoty (About A Mile)
