VS 1
When I see the cross you carried
to the crest of Calvary
The symbol of your suffering seems beautiful to me
On a day filled with injustice, when the cup you drank was bitter
All that I can see is love whenever I consider
Chorus
The cross, the cross, the precious old cross
where you took all my sin and you covered the cost
And apart from your mercy my gain is loss
when I consider the cross, oh when I consider the cross
VS 2
So take all of my successes any honor I have won
I lay down everything thing here before what You have done
'Cause my life is not my own now, Lord I see You as the giver
and I will spend eternity so grateful to consider....
REPEAT CHORUS
Bridge
I will dwell upon the crown you wore, the nails that caused your scars
All other scenes will pale beside what's burning in my heart...
REPEAT CHORUS AND TAG
