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