Countless are the crosses that have stood on countless hills
Marked and stained with guilt and shame, the worst of us until
One single cross would stand with heaven's best upon display
For all of us, for all of us
Countless are the scars that bear the punishment of men
Wounds that speak of sin and blame intended to condemn
For in one act of selfless love, the Savior took our place
Upon the cross, upon the cross
Oh the power of divine surrender
Oh the reach of love that took our place
Oh the mercy of the sinless Savior
This is the glory of the cross
Countless are the graves that still lay holding dust and bone
But only one has ever been found powerless to hold
The resurrected King of Kings who conquered death itself
For all of us, for all of us
Oh the power of divine surrender
Oh the reach of love that took our place
Oh the mercy of the sinless Savior
This is the glory of the cross
When brokenness meets grace, standing face to face
This is glory, this is glory
When sin is overrun and love has overcome
This is glory, this is glory
When brokenness meets grace, standing face to face
This is glory, this is glory
When sin is overrun and love has overcome
This is glory, this is glory
Oh the power of divine surrender
Oh the reach of love that took our place
Oh the mercy of the sinless Savior
This is the glory of the cross
