The Way of the Cross

1 To the blest retreat of the mercy seat,
I’m coming by the way of the cross;
To behold the grace of the Father’s face,
I’m coming by the way of the cross.

Chorus:
I am coming today by the blood-sprinkled way,
Coming by the way of the cross;
Blessed Savior in thee, there’s salvation for me,
I’m coming by the way of the cross.

2 Out of sin’s dark night to the fadeless light,
I’m coming by the way of the cross;
From the fruitless strife to the better life,
I’m coming by the way of the cross. [Chorus]

3 To the peaceful rest on the Saviour’s breast,
I’m coming by the way of the cross;
To the shelt’ring wings of the King of kings,
I’m coming by the way of the cross. [Chorus]

4 Let the Father’s will work within me still,
I’m coming by the way of the cross;
And the proffered cup, let me take it up,
I’m coming by the way of the cross. [Chorus]
