Lost in wonder

"You chose the cross with every breath

The perfect life, the perfect death

You chose the cross.

A crown of thorns you wore for us

And crowned us with eternal life

You chose the cross.

And though your soul was overwhelmed with pain

Obedient to death You overcame

I'm lost in wonder, I'm lost in love,

I'm lost in praise for evermore.

Because of Jesus' unfailing love

I am forgiven, I am restored.

You loosed the cords of sinfulness

And broke the chains of my disgrace

You chose the cross.

Up from the grave victorious

You rose again so glorious

You chose the cross.

The sorrow that surrounded you was mine

Yet 'Not my will, but Yours be done' You cried."
