Matt Maher
The Cross Forever Speaks
[Verse 1]
Though I'm pressed on every side
I still know I'm not abandoned
Though the ways of God aren't mine
I still know I'm not forsaken

[Chorus 1]
Take all the breath in my lungs
You'll hear the rocks crying glory to God
Take everything that I've got
And you'll see two empty hands lifted up
You may silence me, but the cross forever speaks

[Verse 2]
Though I'm filled with questions "why?"
I still know I'm not abandoned
Though I suffer in this life
I still know I'm not forsaken

[Chorus 1]
Take all the breath in my lungs
You'll hear the rocks crying glory to God
Take everything that I've got
And you'll see two empty hands lifted up
You may silence me, but the cross forever speaks
[Bridge]
Forgiveness for my enemies
Mercy and grace, I am set free
The price of love is paid in full
His blood poured out, how beautiful!

[Chorus 2]
Take all the breath in my lungs
And you'll hear the rocks crying glory to God
Take everything that I've got
And you'll see two empty hands lifted up
You may silence me
You may silence me
You may silence me
But the cross forever speaks
