It's about the cross

It's not just about the manger 

Where the baby lay 

It's not all about the angels 

Who sing for him that day

It's not all about the shepherds 

Or the bright and shining star 

It's not all about the wisemen 

Who travelled from afar 

It's about the cross 

It's about my sin 

It's about how Jesus 

came to be born once 

So that we could be born again 

It's about the stone 

That was rolled away 

So that you and I could have 

real life someday 

It's about the cross

It's not just about the good things

In this life I've done 

Its not all about the treasures 

Or the trophies that I've won 

Its not about the righteousness 

That I've find within 

Its all about His precious blood 

That save me from my sin

It's about the cross 

It's about my sin 

It's about how Jesus 

came to be born once 

So that we could be born again 

It's about the stone 

That was rolled away 

So that you and I could have 

real life someday 

It's about the cross

The beginning of the story is 

wonderful and great 

But it's the ending that can save you

and that's why we celebrate 

It's about the cross 

It's about my sin 

It's about how Jesus 

came to be born once 

So that we could be born again

It's about God's Son 

Nailed to a tree

It's about how every drop of blood 

that flowed from Him 

when it should have been me 

It's about the stone 

That was rolled away 

So that you and I could have 

real life someday 

So that you and I could have 

real life someday 

It's about the cross

It's about the cross
