X Marks the Spot
I set my heart upon
The centerpiece of time and history
Upon the cross
Fullness of God displayed
All of His wondrous ways appearing
There in His greatest work, oh
His manifold nature revealed
Within the scene on Calvary's hill
Upon the cross I behold
Love and justice converge
Peace and righteousness kiss
Holiness meets with mercy
The wrath of our God
And the grace of our Savior here cross
And the X marks the spot
Dig for eternal days
To find the bottom of this mystery
Yet find it deeper still
Theme of immortal praise
The blazing center of all glory
A truth unsearchable, oh
This beauty all-eclipsing shines
So lift your eyes, be satisfied
Upon the cross, Your glory shines the brightest, God
Upon the cross, You hung the picture of Your heart
Upon the cross, the clearest vision of Your face
The perfect image, final word, and highest name
The centerpiece of time and history
Upon the cross
Fullness of God displayed
All of His wondrous ways appearing
There in His greatest work, oh
His manifold nature revealed
Within the scene on Calvary's hill
Upon the cross I behold
Love and justice converge
Peace and righteousness kiss
Holiness meets with mercy
The wrath of our God
And the grace of our Savior here cross
And the X marks the spot
Dig for eternal days
To find the bottom of this mystery
Yet find it deeper still
Theme of immortal praise
The blazing center of all glory
A truth unsearchable, oh
This beauty all-eclipsing shines
So lift your eyes, be satisfied
Upon the cross, Your glory shines the brightest, God
Upon the cross, You hung the picture of Your heart
Upon the cross, the clearest vision of Your face
The perfect image, final word, and highest name
