[Verse 1]
What wisdom once devised the plan
Where all our sin and pride
Was placed upon the perfect Lamb
Who suffered, bled, and died?
The wisdom of a Sovereign God
Whose greatness will be shown
When those who crucified Your Son
Rejoice around Your throne

[Chorus]
And, oh, the glory of the cross
That You would send Your Son for us
I gladly count my life as loss
That I might come to know
The glory of, the glory of the cross

[Verse 2]
What righteousness was there revealed
That sets the guilty free
That justifies ungodly men
And calls the filthy clean?
A righteousness that proved to all
Your justice has been met
And holy wrath is satisfied
Through one atoning death
[Chorus]
And, oh, the glory of the cross
That You would send Your Son for us
And I gladly count my life as loss
That I might come to know
The glory of, the glory of the cross!

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
What mercy now has been proclaimed
For those who would believe?
A love incomprehensible
Our minds could not conceive
A mercy that forgives my sin
Then makes me like Your Son
And now I'm loved forevermore
Because of what You've done

[Chorus]
And, oh, the glory of the cross
That You would send Your Son for us
And I gladly count my life as loss
That I might come to know
The glory of...
And, oh, the glory of the cross
That You would send Your Son for us
And I gladly count my life as loss
That I might come to know
The glory of, the glory of the cross
