When my flesh is weak, and
I'm discouraged about life;
And I've convinced myself, giving up will be all right.
Satan whispers, he'll make me slip forever some day.
Oh it's not that easy, there's a cross standing in my way.
The cross stands between me and forever.
To die in sin is a choice left up to me.
Yes there's a cross standing between me and forever.
If I go down, I'll have to pass right by that tree.
turn around
Sinner hear the words I'm saying to you now.
If sin's flames become your home, I don't see how.
Cause you'll go there through loved one's prayers they've played in vain
Oh not to mention, there's a cross standing in your way.
The cross stands between me and forever.
To die in sin is a choice left up to me.
Yes there's a cross standing between me and forever.
If I go down, I'll have to pass
Right by that tree.
Oh if I go down, I'll have to pass, right by that tree.
