The Wonder of the Cross – Vicky Beeching

Vicky Beeching’s song, The Wonder of the Cross, is a prayer that we not lose our amazement at what Christ has done for us on the cross.

CHORUS

May I never lose the wonder,
The wonder of the cross.
May I see it like the first time
Standing as a sinner lost,
Undone by mercy and left speechless,
Watching wide eyed at the cost.
May I never lose the wonder,
The wonder of the cross.

VERSE 2A
Behold the God-man crucified,
The perfect sinless sacrifice.
As blood ran down those nails and wood,
History was split in two, yes,
History was split in two.

VERSE 2B
Behold the empty wooden tree,
His body gone, alive and free.
We sing with everlasting joy,
For sin and death have been destroyed, yes,
Sin and death have been destroyed.

The range is just a little big for a congregation, but in the right key it could work.
