Backstory:

I got the idea for this while taking communion one Sunday and I went home and wrote it after church.                                                                                

Lyrics:

                                                  
I'll Never Forget the Cross
(Kayanek)

Holding your brokenness between my fingertips
Feeling your pain and agony
Seeing your suffering as they punished you
when they should've punished me
unworthy of your sacrifice as you paid a price
you knew no one else could pay
tasting the mercy that gave away your life
so my sins could wash away

I'll never forget the cross
I'll never forget how you died
when you took my place that day
willing to be crucified
as I come to your table 
humbly I say
I'll never forget the cross
where you died for me that day


holding the cup of wrath
thinking of the torment that you felt
wondering how much blood you had to shed for me
before my sins could wash away
knowing you could've called 10,000 angels to your aid
but you faced it on your own
for you knew that it was the only way
I would ever make it home

repeat chorus

so I'll cherish the Old Rugged Cross
til my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the Old Rugged Cross
and exchange it someday for a crown

repeat chorus
