HIDE ME BEHIND THE CROSS (Gold City song) Lord as I seek to serve You May you find in me what’s pleasing to Your heart I leave my will at Calvary Taking on a nature, humbled by Your scars (read on...)
For I know it’s only through Your love That who I am is hidden by your grace Let my desires be overshadowed As I recall the purpose of that grace.
Hide me behind the cross Where my gains become as loss And only Your glory is in view Your power will be revealed The more that I am concealed
Hide me behind the crossSo the world sees only You If I rely on my own strength To be a source of hope to those in need The only profit I would gain Would be the empty honour of my deeds But with all of self behind the cross The splendour of Your love stands free to shine Illuminated with Your power Reaching souls so You alone are glorified.

Hide me behind the cross
Where my gains become as loss
And only Your glory is in view
Your power will be revealed
The more that I am concealed
Hide me behind the crossSo the world sees only You
If I rely on my own strength
To be a source of hope to those in need
The only profit I would gain
Would be the empty honour of my deeds
But with all of self behind the cross
The splendour of Your love stands free to shine
Illuminated with Your power
Reaching souls so You alone are glorified.
