To some it’s just an emblem a formality.
It’s a symbol that’s been used so frequently.
Many blaspheme and despise; though it’s ancient, it abides.
A shrine to death, it stands for life to me.
There was a cross made for the Son of God at Calvary.
Two pieces of rough timber on a hill.
Through His hands and through His feet,
He took the nails for you and me.
Angels watched as He died for the lost.
Though He could have walked away, He chose the cross.
You see why this old emblem is so dear to me.
It stood for suffering and it brought us peace.
It bridged the gap for man, of cleansing for our sins
An icon that reminds us that we’re free!
God forbid that I should ever let my memory fade.
But forever keep the cross in view for that’s where I was saved.
Though He could have walked away, He chose the cross.

I shed tears of gladness too when I first heard this song. It so reminds me how thankful I should be that Christ saved me and chose the cross for me.
