Verse 1

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 cross,

That Jesus You would do this for me.

 When You were broken, You were beaten,

You were punished, I go free,

When You were wounded and rejected,

In Your mercy, I am healed.

Verse 2

Jesus Christ the sinner's Friend

Does this kindness know no bounds?

With Your precious blood You have purchased me.

O, 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.
