Evoking the imagery of Jonathan Edwards’ sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” Crowder’s song portrays the imminent danger our lives experience until the moment we come face-to-face with Christ’s payment for our sins. We are each facing a death sentence that is completely unstoppable save by the death of Jesus on that cross. Crowderhas pu...

The song also remin...
Maybe you prefer the original artist, Cody Carnes, and his version, but either way this is one of the most popular Christian songs about the cross and Jesus’ resurrection. At the time of Jesus’ death, the cross was a symbol of death and defeat, but it certainly wasn’t the end of His story. We can take part in Jesus’ victory over death when we come ...
Few of today’s popular Christian songs capture the substitutionary aspect of the cross quite like “This is Amazing Grace” from Phil Wickham.

The oldest entry on our list of popular Christian songs about the cross is a hymn written around the end of the American Civil War.

Dec 2, 2018 · As the song says, “I stood condemned to die, but Jesus took my place. He bore it all that I with him might live.” Is that really what happened?
