Verse 1 :
Up to the hill of Calvary,
My Savior went courageously
and there he bled and died for me,
Hallelujah for the cross
And on that day the world was changed,
A final, perfect lamb was slain
Let earth and heaven now proclaim,
Hallelujah for the cross

Chorus:
Hallelujah for the war He fought,
Love has won, Death has lost.
Hallelujah for the souls He bought,
Hallelujah for the cross.

Verse 2 :
What good I've done could never save,
My debt too great for deeds to pay
But God, my Savior, made a way,
Hallelujah for the cross
A slave to sin, my life was bound,
But all my chains fell to the ground
When Jesus' blood came flowing down,
Hallelujah for the cross - Chorus

And when I breathe my final breath,
I'll have no need to fear that rest.
This hope will guide me into death:
Hallelujah for the cross! - Chorus
