What wisdom once devised the plan Where all our sin and pride Was placed upon the perfect Lamb Who suffered, bled, and died? The wisdom of a Sovereign God Whose greatness will be shown When those who crucified Your Son Rejoice around Your throne

 

CHORUS And, oh, the glory of the cross That You would send Your Son for us I gladly count my life as loss That I might come to know The glory of, the glory of the cross

 

What righteousness was there revealed That sets the guilty free That justifies ungodly men And calls the filthy clean? A righteousness that proved to all Your justice has been met And holy wrath is satisfied Through one atoning death

 

What mercy now has been proclaimed For those who would believe A love incomprehensible Our minds could not conceive? A mercy that forgives my sin Then makes me like Your Son And now I'm loved forevermore Because of what You've done
