Have you surveyed the wondrous Cross... like Christ's disciple John?
Considered such traumatic loss... and thought all hope was gone?
Watched Jesus as He wore a crown... of callous thorns that day
While blood was pouring from each frown... as that crowd chose to stay?
Or heard the scoffers full of doubt... when Christ was called a King?
Or Mary's sorrows crying out... while kneeling, wondering?

With John still staring at his friend... condemned at Calvary
And asking... if this was the end... must Jesus die for me?
Those in the Spirit have been there... they've seen the Roman swords...
Yet every day they say in prayer... Christ is the Lord of Lords!
Christ is the King of Kings, indeed! The Word of God, for sure...
The Saviour sent... so He'd succeed... like none God sent before...

Amazing grace came through God's Son... His Name's worth more than gold!
The Bible says what Christ has done... is the greatest story ever told!
