Veneration of the Cross by Ghanaian Choir

----------------------------------------------------
Opening Hymn – How Deep the Father's love for us
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
to make a wretch His treasure.

How great the pain of searing loss,
the Father turns His face away
as wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory.

Behold the Man upon a cross,
my sin upon His shoulders
ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
call out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held Him there
until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that
it is finished

I will not boast in anything
no gifts, no power no wisdom
but I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection.

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
but this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

We are trav'llers on the road;

When you laugh I'll laugh with you.
I will share your joy and sorrow
Till we've seen this journey through.

you are my friend.
I want to follow you always,
just to follow my friend.
