The Wonderful Cross
by Pat Barrett

Album: Songs of Communion

Verse 1
O precious sight my Savior stands
Dying for me with outstretched hands
O precious sight I love to gaze
Remembering salvation's day
Remembering salvation's day

Verse 2
Behold the God-man crucified
The perfect sinless sacrifice
As blood ran down
Those nails and wood
History was split in two
History was split in two

Chorus 1
May I never lose the wonder
The wonder of the cross
May I see it like the first time
Standing as a sinner lost

Chorus 2
Undone by mercy and left speechless
Watching wide eyed at the cost
May I never lose the wonder
The wonder of the cross

Verse 3
Behold the empty wooden tree
His body gone alive and free
We sing with everlasting joy
For sin and death have been destroyed
Sin and death have been destroyed

Chorus 1
May I never lose the wonder
The wonder of the cross
May I see it like the first time
Standing as a sinner lost

Chorus 2
Undone by mercy and left speechless
Watching wide eyed at the cost
May I never lose the wonder
The wonder of the cross

Chorus 1
May I never lose the wonder
The wonder of the cross
May I see it like the first time
Standing as a sinner lost

Chorus 2
Undone by mercy and left speechless
Watching wide eyed at the cost
May I never lose the wonder
The wonder of the cross
