Hey, have you ever heard “The Other Side of the Cross”? I came across it the other day, and it really moved me. It’s one of those songs that feels like a quiet conversation between old friends, touching on themes of hope, forgiveness, and seeing life from a new perspective.
What struck me most is how it invites us to consider what’s beyond our immediate view—the idea that there’s more to every story than we might see at first glance. The melody is soothing, almost like a gentle reminder that there’s always another side to every situation. And the lyrics? They weave a narrative that’s both personal and universally relatable.
Listening to it made me reflect on my own experiences and the times I’ve needed to look beyond my own struggles to find understanding. It’s amazing how a song can encapsulate such profound thoughts in just a few minutes. If you’re looking for something that resonates on a deeper level, I think you’d really appreciate this track

Lyrics
There were tears in the eyes of Jesus there were nails in the palms of his hands
There were thorns in his brow and only God could know how
Much pain he could withstand
There was blood all around the hillside as a mother mourned her loss
And we all stood to gain from the heavenly pain on the other side of the cross
On the other side of the cross the side that no one could see
On the spirit of things yet to come on the future of you and me
And what he gave that day on the cross not one bit of love has been lost
Hold my hand stand up and say if you were there on that day
On the other side of the cross…
