Forever We Will Thank You For The Cross KXC

Oh the pain 
The pain that you endured 
The twisted crown of thorns 
Your flesh was ripped and torn 
Oh the shame 
The shame that weighed you down 
The violence of the crowd 
The spit upon your brow 
 
What a sacrifice 
When you gave your life 
To demonstrate the Father's heart for us 
How you shed your blood 
For the ones you love 
We'll ever be amazed at all you've done 
Forever we will thank you for the cross 
 
Oh the nails 
The nails that held you there 
Until your final breath 
Surrendering to death 
Oh the grave 
The grave they sealed you in 
A tomb for all our sin 
The darkness closing in 
 
What a sacrifice 
When you gave your life 
To demonstrate the Father's heart for us 
How you shed your blood 
For the ones you love 
We'll ever be amazed at all you've done 
Forever we will thank you for the cross 
 
Oh the day, the day 
The day you rose again 
The stone was rolled away 
The course of hist'ry changed 
Oh praise his name 
Crown him with ev'ry crown 
Let every knee bow down 
Let Earth and heaven shout 
 
What a victory 
When you rose to be 
Exalted over every living thing 
We have been redeemed 
We have been set free 
We'll ever be amazed at all you've done 
Forever we will thank you for the cross 
 
Forever worthy 
Forever great 
Forever you deserve the glory and the praise 
We'll forever worship 
Christ our Lord 
Forever we will thank you for the cross 
 
Forever worthy 
Forever great 
Forever you deserve the glory and the praise 
We'll forever worship 
Christ our Lord 
Forever we will thank you for the cross 
 
Oh the joy 
The joy I've come to know 
My life is not my own 
My everything I owe 
Oh the life 
The life that I have found 
In laying it all down 
I'm following you now 
I'm taking up my cross
