LYRICS:
The Wonder of Your Cross
The wonder of your cross shall be our meditation
To gather in that shadow when the sun went down
To weep with those who thought that you were leaving
You were leaving, Jesus
The humble King who never wore an earthly crown
To steal away at night when they took down your body
With love and tears to leave You in a borrowed grave
To go with Mary to the place they laid You
Where they laid You, Jesus
And in the morning find the stone was rolled away
The cross, O the wonderful cross
O, What Glory, what victory, I've found
And, I'll come to the wonderful cross
And my whole life I lay down
Were heaven's praises silent in those hours of darkness?
Your Holy Spirit brooding round that empty throne?
Until the declaration "He is Risen", You are risen, Jesus
"He is not dead, behold He lives for evermore”

It is true, I can not get over how much God loves us in all our sins that he allowed him self to be mocked and tortured to death on the Cross just so we could have a chance to spend eternity with him in total bliss.
