on my cross

How wide is Your love, that You would stretch
Your arms and go around the World
And why for me would a savior’s cry be heard
I don’t know, why You went where I was meant to go
I don’t know, why You Love me so
Those were my nails, that was my crown
That pierced your hands, and Your brow
Those were my thorns, those were my scorns
Those were my tears that fell down
And just as You said it would be You did it all for me
And after You counted the cost,
You took my shame, my blame, On my cross
How deep is Your grace, that You could see my need
And choose to take my Place
And then for me, these words I’d hear You say
Father no, forgive them for they know not what they do
I will go, because I love them so
