If I only had one song that I could sing you
Or a story I could tell before I leave
If I only had 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
or the peace and joy I have when times are tough
I could see in all the blessings I've been given
But In the end my life is just
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
Two thousand years ago
If I had watched Him die
I think I would have lost all hope
Demanded to know why
But now I know the cross means everything
And it's the greatest honor to sing
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
There's something beautiful
Something incredible
There's something wonderful
About the cross
