This week’s featured song story comes to us from the Newsboys with special guest Peter Furler. We’re excited to share with you the story behind their new single “The Cross Has The Final Word,” a song about the power of Jesus and about what He did on the cross for us.
“God has plans for your life, God has a purpose for your existence and when He says it’s over, it’s over. The Cross Has The Final Word. And what you’ve done in your past, you’re forgiven. You can leap forward in faith and victory. You won’t be judged. God has the final word.” – Michael Tait

“The Cross Has The Final Word” 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 Saviour 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 honour, 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 honour, all the power
All the glory to the Name of Jesus!
The cross has the final word
The cross has the final word
The Saviour 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
❤️✝️🎤🎸🎹Thank you for loving us, Jesus!!!!
THAT new song and video IS so BEAUTIFUL, Newsboys!!! What a surprise to find out you have a NEW song. I was using my Ipad’s calculator and a pop-up showed a picture if the Newsboys and advertised about this new song. Of course being a HUGE fan I had to pursue!😍
Awesome
You guys were my first Christian band I heard which made me instantly only listen to K-Love here in El Paso, I don’t care if I win the guitar, I just want you to know I really love your music, message, and I wish you all blessings
All your music relates to me in some way or another! When I’m faced with obstacles I find it comforting that I can put my earphones in and just get inspired to keep living my life through Christ, because after all, “the cross has the final say.”
Stay strong y’all, God sees us!
Thanks for the song
I love this! I love the Newsboys!
Your songs has touched my soul so deeply. I’ve been a faithful listener ever since I first heard your group in the movie “Gods Not Dead”. May God continue to bless each and every one if you, and may your songs continue to bring people closer to God.
