The cross, O the wonderful cross

What Glory, what victory, I've found

I'll come to the wonderful cross

And my whole life I lay down

Were heaven's praises silent in those hours of darkness?

Your Holy Spirit brooding round that empty throne?

Until the declaration "He is Risen"

 You are risen, Jesus,
 
A          F#m      Bm7                E     A  Asus  A
"He is not dead, behold He lives for evermore".
