Couplet 1

How did it feel
To carry the world on Your shoulders
And what was it like
To hold all the weight of our sin
How much did it hurt
When it seemed like the Father forsook You
But You carried the pain
And endured it all for us

Refrain

So thank You for the price
That You paid
Thank You for the lives that You saved
You knew it would come
And You knew it would hurt
But You still chose to carry it all
So thank You for choosing the cross

Couplet 2

And how does it feel
To see how the world still rejects You
And what is it like
To love us in spite of our sin
And how much does it hurt
To know how much freedom has cost You
But You carry the pain
And invite us all back home

Refrain

So thank You for the price
That You paid
Thank You for the lives that You saved
You knew it would come
And You knew it would hurt
But You still chose to carry it all
So thank You for choosing the cross

Pont

His blood
Was shed to set me free
On the cross that stood on calvary
The blood of Jesus makes me clean
The cross it is my victory

Refrain

So thank You for the price
That You paid
Thank You for the lives that You saved
You knew it would come
And You knew it would hurt
But You still chose to carry it all
So thank You for choosing the cross
