Sweetly Broken Lyrics
Sweetly Broken by Jeremy Riddle
To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of its suffering I do drink
Of its work I do sing
For on it my Savior both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is just
Chorus:
At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I’m sweetly broken, wholly surrendered
What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified
You’ve called me out of death
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciled
Chorus:
In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness
(2x’s)
Chorus:
To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of its suffering I do drink
Of its work I do sing
Showed that God is love
And God is just
At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I’m sweetly broken, wholly surrendered
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciled
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness

This is a great song. It really shows how God can take the things that Satan tries to use for evil, and completely turn it around for Good. God allowed the punishment of the cross to be the greatest love sacrifice anyone has ever shown for our dying world. If you allow it to, the true power of the cross and the sacrifice Jesus made really does beckon us, and draw us to our knees, speechless, broken and surrendered.
