Intro: ADBm7ADBm7AAF#mBm7EAD/AAD/A
The wonder of your cross shall be our meditation
AF#mBm7EAD//AAD/A
To gather in that shadow when the sun went down
EBm7EF#m
To weep with those who thought that you were leaving,
D
You were leaving, Jesus
AF#mBm7EADBm7ADBm7AD
The humble King who never wore an earthly crown.
AF#mBm7EAD/AAD/A
To steal away at night when they took down your body.
AF#mBm7EAD//AAD/A
With love and tears to leave You in a borrowed grave
EBm7EF#m
To go with Mary to the place they laid You,
D
Where they laid You, Jesus
AF#mBm7EAAsusA
And in the morning find the stone was rolled away
ChorusDA/C#E/G#D/F#E
The cross, O the wonderful cross
DA/C#E/G#D/F#E
What Glory, what victory, I've found
DA/C#E/G#D/F#E
I'll come to the wonderful cross
DF#mBm7EADBm7ADBm7A
And my whole life I lay down
AF#mBm7EAD/AAD/A
Were heaven's praises silent in those hours of darkness?
AF#mBm7EAD/AAD/A
Your Holy Spirit brooding round that empty throne?
EBm7EF#m
Until the declaration "He is Risen"
D
You are risen, Jesus,
AF#mBm7EAAsusA
"He is not dead, behold He lives for evermore".
