About The Cross
  If I only have one song
  that I could sing you
  Or a story I could tell before I leave
  If I only have one message
  I could bring you
  There's no question it would be
 
  About the cross
  About the blood
  About the place I found
  God's mercy and love
  And although it's bittersweet
  Remembering the cost
  There's something beautiful
  About the cross
 
  I could sing about the state
  of grace I live in
  And the peace and joy
  I have when times are tough
  And you'd see in all
  the blessings I've been given
  But in the end my life is just
 
  Two thousand years ago
  If I have watched Him die
  I think I would have lost all hope
  Demanding to know why
  But now I know
  the cross means everything
  And it's the greatest honor to sing
 
  So I'll cherish that old rugged
   cross,
  Till my trophies at last I lay down;
  I will cling to the old rugged cross,
  And exchange it some day
   for a crown.
  There's something beautiful
  About the cross
