I will love you for the cross And I will love you for the cost Man of sufferings Bringer of my peace
You came into a world of shame And paid the price we could not pay Death that brought me life Blood that brought me home Death that brought me life Blood that brought me home
Chorus: And I love you for the cross I'm overwhelmed by the mystery I love you for the cost That Jesus you would do this for me
When you were broken, you were beaten, You were punished, I go free You were wounded and rejected In your mercy - I am healed
Jesus Christ the sinners friend Does this kindness know no bounds With your precious blood you have purchased me
Oh the mystery of the cross You were punished you were crushed But that punishment has become my peace Yes that punishment has become my peace
Chorus
By your wounds I am healed
For the cross, for the cross, for the cross I thank you Oh Lord, for the cross, for the cross
