1 The cross displays God's love for us;
He gave His only Son--
That Son was lifted up to die,
The many saved by One.
Behold the glory of the cross,
The mercy of the Son;
That all who trust His finished work
God's children they become.
2 Yet justice there is meted out,
God's cup of wrath He drank,
The price of sin was paid in blood
And full atonement made.
Behold the glory of the cross,
The justice of the Son;
That all who trust His finished work
The righteous they become.
3 Such perfect wisdom on display,
The Lambn for sinners slain
Is risen now, the worthy Lamb,
forever more to reign.
Behold the glory of the cross,
The victory of the Son;
That all who trust His finished work
Sing His eternal song.
