We will remember the cross
Lifted high upon the hill
We will remember His loss
And the blood that’s pleading still
Oh the wonder of His suff’ring love
And the crown of pain He wore
We will remember the cross of our Lor
We will return to the cross
To the place of sacrifice
We will count all as loss
For the sake of knowing Christ
Oh the power of His suff’ring love
And the stripes He gladly bore
We will return to the cross of our Lord
We will take up the cross
Lifting high His victory
We have counted the cost
To proclaim the captives free
In the spirit of His suff’ring love
For the joy that’s set before
We will take up the cross of our Lord
In the spirit of His suff’ring love
For the joy that’s set before
We will remember the cross
We will return to the cross
We will take up the cross of our Lord
