Verse 1
Amazing Love that sent His Son to suffer in my stead
The sinless King who died for me, When I deserved His death
Verse 2
The Savior wept my every tear, He groaned that I might sing My thorny crown upon His head, My cross, His suffering My cross, His suffering
CHORUS 1
Your love shines, love shines at Calvary, Calvary Your love shines, love shines at Calvary, Calvary
Verse 3
Jesus, Glorious Risen One, No grave could keep Him stayed And He who triumphed over death, Now lives and leads my way
He lives and leads my way
He lives and leads my way
CHORUS 2
Your love shines, love shines at Calvary, Calvary Now we proclaim that Jesus reigns in victory, victory
Bridge 1
From the cross, from the grave you rose victoriously Son of God, King of Love, You reign victoriously
Bridge 2
From the cross, from the grave you rose victoriously Son of God, King of Love, You reign victoriously

Austin Stone Worship's song reflects on the depth of Christ's love demonstrated at the cross and the victory of His resurrection. The lyrics contrast the singer's unworthiness with Jesus' sacrificial death, emphasizing that the sinless King died in place of sinners. It also highlights Christ's empathy in sharing human sorrow and the triumph over the grave. The repeated declaration that Jesus reigns victoriously ties the cross and resurrection together as the ultimate display of love and power. The song is a worshipful meditation on the gospel narrative, focusing on substitutionary atonement and the living hope found in the risen Christ.
