I hope this is the right song

The Cross

Verse I:

To some it's just an emblem a formality.
It's a symbol that's been used so frequently.
Many blaspheme and despise.
Though it's ancient, it abides.
A shrine to death that stands for life to me.

Chorus:

There was a cross made for the Son of God at Calvary.
Two pieces of rough timber on a hill.
Through His hands and through His feet,
He took the nails for you and me.
Angels watched as He died for the lost.
Though He could have walked away He chose the cross.

Verse II:

You see why this old emblem is so dear to me.
It stood for suffering, yet it brought us peace.
It bridged the gap for me.
Offered cleansing for our sins.
An icon that reminds us that we're free.
Chorus:

There was a cross made for the Son of God at Calvary.
Two pieces of rough timber on a hill.
Through His hands and through His feet,
He took the nails for you and me.
Angels watched as He died for the lost.
Though He could have walked away He chose the cross
Bridge;

God forbid that I should ever let my memory fade.
But forever keep the cross in view for that's where I was saved,
I was saved

Chorus:

There was a cross made for the Son of God at Calvary.
Two pieces of rough timber on a hill.
Through His hands and through His feet,
He took the nails for you and me.
Angels watched as He died for the lost.
Though He could have walked away He chose the cross.
Tag;

Though He could have walked away He chose the cross.
He chose the cross.

If the previous clue is not what you're looking for , you might try looking for the song titled, "The Blood Will Never Loose It's Power." I believe that song was by Andre Crouch who resides in California

This is the song that the previous post referred to...

The blood that Jesus shed for me
Way back on Calvary
The blood that gives me strength from day to day
It will never lose its power

CHORUS
And it reaches to the highest mountain
And it flows to the lowest valley
The blood that gives me strength from day to day
It will never lose its power

It soothes my doubts and calms all of my fears
And it drives away every tear
I know the blood that gives me strength from day to day
It will never lose its power

Chorus x2

The Cross is an amazing song, I first heard it as a part of an Easter Cantata we sang at church last year.
