Cody Carnes - The Cross Has The Final Word (Live) Lyrics






The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
Sorrow may come in the darkest night
But the cross has the final word

The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
Evil may put up its strongest fight
But the cross has the final word

The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
The Savior has come with the morning light
The cross has the final word

The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
He traded death for eternal life
The cross has the final word

There's nothing stronger, nothing higher
Nothing greater than the name of Jesus
All the honor, all the power
All the glory to the name of Jesus
There's nothing stronger, nothing higher
Nothing greater than the name of Jesus
All the honor, all the power
All the glory to the name of Jesus

The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
The Savior has come with the morning light
The cross has the final word

The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
He traded death for eternal life
The cross has the final word

    Hey Cody, I am dealing with an issue with anger and resentment for racial justice. As a legally blind black male, I hear stories about how black people deal with racist attacks from whites. I've never experienced it myself, but I understand it's a big problem in our country. How do I forgive and love white people? I most definitely care about my people and other races. I just need to know what to do. I am a Christian man myself, always have been since I was a kid. It seems like things are getting worse.
    What should I do?

  26. S.... E....

    Uh, no! CHRIST had & has & will have the final word. Sheesh!

    S.... E....

    Actually, the song refers to John 19:30...

    Though you composed this song to glorify our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You are singing about a heretical false teaching concerning the Word of God, the Truth, the Holy Bible. Fellow Christians, immerse yourselves into God's Word and read your Bible so that you may be blessed by Him with knowledge, wisdom, understanding, and discernment so that you may notice such things as the lyrics in this song which is false and calls to be reproved and rebuked in the name of our Lord.

    John 1:1 "In the Beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

    Revelation 19:13 "He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is the Word of God."

    Revelation 22:13 "I Am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End."

    I AM that I AM
    Etymology

    Exodus 3:14 "And God said unto Moses, I AM that I AM: and he said, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me me unto you."

    I AM = hayah(Hebrew)
    [was, is, is to come]

    Hebrew - hayah (that) hayah = to pass, to be, to come
    [that which was, which is, which is to come]
    [past, present, future]

    The "cross" itself is just a symbol of Jesus Christ's crucifixion at Cavalry for the atonement of our sins and iniquities as He begged our Father in Heaven for our forgiveness. Christ died on the cross giving up His Spirit as he breathed his last breath. He was buried in a tomb and was resurrected three days later defeating death as his body had not seen decay. He then visited and spoke with his disciples "after" His crucifixion on "the cross" and was witnessed by over 500 people after his "death" then he ascended into Heaven.
    The "cross" is just a material object that you(Cody) as the artist are using to represent Jesus Christ but that itself is grounds for idolatry. Ultimately it is our Lord Jesus Christ who has the final Word, not "the cross."

    I do take into consideration that this is your song that you have composed and written and that you may have a different interpretation of your own lyrics but it is a literal false teaching, and symbolically it is idolatry.

    The Lord has directed me to preach to others to, "Repent for the kingdom of Heaven is near."
    Turn away from sin and continue to live a Holy and Righteous life and be steadfast and stand firm in your faith in Jesus Christ to the end so that you may inherit the Kingdom of Heaven.

    "The Cross Has the Final Word" + We better make sure, we are always LISTENING! Have a PPPP3 Day (Peaceful, Positive & Productive, (only possible) when we focus + FEEL God's love = God's Plans 4our Lives :) Trust: Proverbs (3) 5-6.

  68. G.... K....

    Listening 2 ur songs 2day,4,1st time-And am amazed once again, how God knows+gives Us what we Need (not,often,what we 'want'), and it's ALWAYS given at the exact moment, we need it. HIS plans R perfect, mine are not. I've had a very intense week (both very good + very bad events... (It's become a bit eerie, how YT auto playlists brings me 2 songs or musicians I never heard before, at what seems 2b when I need to discover these thoughts/songs; But regardless of how I found it, I feel very thankful to God and the so special (talented) people He utilizes as his direct messengers. thanks:)

  69. G.... M....

    The cross had the final word and God was the one who spoke it! Thank you Jesus for serving your father so we could serve him for our eternity! Thank you God!

  70. F.... O....

    like the fact that you attach the lyrics... it helps us not to be left out

    F.... O....

    WORD... THIS REALLY BLESSED ME

  71. G.... A....

    Hallelujah! The cross has the final word. No matter what the enemy sends my way. THE CROSS HAS THE FINAL WORD!!!! And that word no one can steal from the cross. His message is spoken still to this very day. Nothing can conquer the purest of blood spilled. For the cross has the final word.

  72. R.... B....

    No War OnlyPeaceinJESUS

  73. D.... B....

    Saw you perform this in St. Louis last year (Joyce Meyers conference) and it blew me away then! So glad this is out officially!!!

  74. T.... S....

    Hi Cody please get in touch with me lets do a movie for children bein sold for sex since I survived the tumor in my brain god has been moving me to  do this  I just love this song we must help these children in Jesus name please you know the tumor was the size of agolf ball I just love this song Amen

  75. t.... t....

    God bless all!

  76. S.... U....

    After my dad passed on i was angry at God, confused and all. Then i stumbled on this song and my healing began. I love the part that says "evil may put forth its strongest fight... the cross has the final word". I hear this song in my sleep many times and wake up to it in my heart on some days. There is really nothing greater than the name of Jesus.

    S.... U....

    The cross will always have the final word, it's for our sake that the cross of salvation began.

    S.... U....

    Sito-Abasi Udoh - AMEN, God Bless you in the Almighty Name of JESUS CHRIST of Nazareth!!

    S.... U....

    Sito-Abasi Udoh No not one.

  77. A.... P....

    I know its metaphor and its awesome what it says in the bridge for sure, but anyone else a little weirded out saying "the cross has the final word" when it was Jesus who literally had the final word OVER the cross? No offense to anyone, just couldn't shake the thought when I heard this song.

    A.... P....

    Aaron Porter. Jesus is also the Word Himself/Itself. God Bless.

    A.... P....

    Aaron Porter hey Aaron.. that's a legitimate question. To help clear it up, I'm not saying the cross has the final word over Jesus. That would be completely incorrect. The cross of Jesus has the final word over all sin, shame, disease, fear, etc. Jesus said "it is finished" at the cross. And those three words of Jesus are the inspiration of this song. Hope this helps. God bless you.

    A.... P....

    Cody Carnes appreciate the response!

  78. D.... B....

    Jesus lovu you

  79. K.... S....

    Jesus is the Way. This is Beautiful. I Thank you Jesus for dying for me. if it wasn't for your blood Jesus Christ I would be lost.

    Thank You Lord for giving this son of Yours the gift of music so he can share Your word in Your name I ask that. You keep Your blessings on him. Amen

  80. m.... k....

    beautiful song indeed. very uplifting

  81. m.... k....

    Amen the cross has the final word. Thank you Jesus. I love you Jesus.

  82. S.... B....

    Just a thought, the cross was an instrument of death not life. If the cross truly had the final word then Jesus would still be dead. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit had the final word not the Cross, nor the Romans nor the Jewish leaders. I would change the song to Jesus had the final word.

    S.... B....

    Hey Stephen! To help clear it up, I'm not saying the cross has the final word over Jesus. That would be completely incorrect and a poor message. I'm saying the cross of Jesus has the final word over all sin, shame, disease, fear, etc. Jesus said "It is finished" when he hung on the cross, and those three words are what inspires this song. Hope that helps. God bless you!

    S.... B....

    My wife calls it poetic license. However, the reality of the words in the song The Cross Has the Final Word means that Jesus lost. What you are really singing is a paradox. Either Jesus is all powerful and defeated death or the cross had the final word which means that Jesus is still dead. To be consistent with what you believe and what you are singing it should be Jesus had the final word not the cross. There is no cross of Jesus there is only the cross. The cross was designed to be instrument of execution. The cross of Jesus did not have final word over all sin, shame, disease, fear, etc. Jesus was victorious but the cross of Jesus did not. You said I am not saying the cross has the final word over Jesus but that is exactly what the words you sing mean.

    S.... B....

    Words (lyrics) matter, especially if they are apostate, blaspheme, contradict, or are heretical to, THE TRUTH. HE will not share HIS Glory with any created thing!

    S.... B....

    I heard this song last Friday at a Bethel United Church in Dyer Indiana I felt drawn to it but I did not understand why they were singing the "cross" has the final word. I felt led to look it up here. I think I understand what you are trying to say but I still can't agree. The redemptive blood of Jesus has the final word, The resurrection can even have the final word but the cross was just a method....or a vehicle to death of that day. It was a tool of execution. It would be like saying in modern times The electric chair has the final word or lethal injection has the final word. I will keep studying but as for now I cannot agree. There is no power in the cross ... but there IS power in the Name and Blood of Jesus.....Ressurection Power! Sorry to disagree here under the video but I do love the message you set out to convey.

    S.... B....

    @Cody Carnes That makes so much sense. When we feel hopeless, shame, guilt we can go to the cross. Thats why in the bible he told us to pick up our cross and follow me. We are following in christ foot steps. Just think about all the struggles Jesus went through leading up to his crucifixion. Jesus died for us knowing that if we repent of our sins and with the holy spirit one day we will be with him in paradise.

    If you have problem go to Jesus. Jesus will fix it. He knows everything before you even ask him. That is how powerful God is.
