Power of The Cross, The

Keith Getty's magnificent Lenten hymn, "In Christ Alone," has won the hearts of believers everywhere. Now, from that same pen comes a new hymn that eclipses its precursor as a transcendent witness to the power of the cross. Subtle vocal counterpoint illumines the prosaic verses, and Mark Hayes's signature harmonic touches color the settings with shifting shades of darknessand light, rising to a powerful close: "What a love, what a cost! We stand forgiven at the cross."
