Love Carried the Cross

When God saw a world lost without Him
He could have simply turned and walked away
But the Father wasn't willing that anyone should perish
So He sent His son to die that day

Love carried the cross for me
Love counted the cost for me
Although I was hopeless, dying and lost
Love carried the cross

He carried the weight on His shoulders
Of every soul through time unredeemed
But He saw the brilliant promise of life beyond that moment
And He took the cross of death willingly

Though I was a child when I heard it
How Jesus took the wrath of man's shame
But when I saw how my sins were the nails He felt at Calvary
It was there I knew, I'd never be the same

Love carried the cross for me
Love counted the cost for me
Although I was hopeless, dying and lost
Although I was hopeless, dying and lost
Love carried the cross
The cross

Although I was hopeless, dying and lost
Love carried the cross
