It Took the Cross
The words of ancient prophets proclaim His deity
The miracles told the power of His touch
The basin and the tower proved His humility
But to show the depths of His matchless love for us
It took the cross, it took that rugged tree
To show just how far He'd go to set us free
With His heart broken, arms wide open
His blood go to the lost
To place in its final cost, it took the cross
The teachings and the temple displayed his worthiness
The tears He shed in sorrow spoke His heart
The children in His arms, revealed His tenderness
But for His saving grace to reach us where we are
It took the cross, it took that rugged tree
To show just how far He'd go to set us free
With His heart broken, arms wide open
His blood go to the lost
To place in its final cost, it took the cross
The message of mercy once for all proclaim through His sacrifice
What a price He paid?
It took the cross, it took that rugged tree
To show just how far He'd go to set us free
With His heart broken, arms wide open
His blood go to the lost
To place in its final cost, it took the cross
It took the cross (it took the cross)
It took the cross
The miracles told the power of His touch
The basin and the tower proved His humility
But to show the depths of His matchless love for us
It took the cross, it took that rugged tree
To show just how far He'd go to set us free
With His heart broken, arms wide open
His blood go to the lost
To place in its final cost, it took the cross
The teachings and the temple displayed his worthiness
The tears He shed in sorrow spoke His heart
The children in His arms, revealed His tenderness
But for His saving grace to reach us where we are
It took the cross, it took that rugged tree
To show just how far He'd go to set us free
With His heart broken, arms wide open
His blood go to the lost
To place in its final cost, it took the cross
The message of mercy once for all proclaim through His sacrifice
What a price He paid?
It took the cross, it took that rugged tree
To show just how far He'd go to set us free
With His heart broken, arms wide open
His blood go to the lost
To place in its final cost, it took the cross
It took the cross (it took the cross)
It took the cross
