[Verse 1]
C                     F        C
There is a beautiful, terrible cross
       Gsus                     C
Where, though You committed no sin,
C                           F           C
Savior, You suffered the most wicked fate
       Gsus        G        C
On the cruelest creation of man.
C                       F        C
Yet, on that beautiful, terrible cross
Gsus                  C
You did what only You could:
C                          F/C     C
Turning that dark inspired evil of hell
Gsus                     C
Into our soul's greatest good.

[Chorus]
G                        F
We see the love that You showed us,
G                        F   C
We see the life that You lost.
G                    Am     F
We bow in wonder and praise You
        C/G        G        C   F   C   F
For the beautiful, terrible cross.

[Verse 2]
C                        F/C      C
There on that beautiful, terrible cross,
       Gsus                        C
Though darkness was strong on that hill,
C                             F           C
You remained sovereign, Lord, still in control
   Gsus                     C
As Your perfect plan was fulfilled.

[Chorus]
G                        F
We see the love that You showed us,
G                        F   C
We see the life that You lost.
G                    Am     F
We bow in wonder and praise You
        C/G        G        C
For the beautiful, terrible cross.

[Chorus 2]
C/E G                       F
Oh, we gained the riches of heaven.
       G                     F   C
Jesus, You paid the horrible cost.
G                      Am     F
We stand forgiven, and praise You
        C/G        Gsus     Am   F
For the beautiful, terrible cross,
        C/G        Gsus     C   F   C   F
For the beauriful, terrible cross.

[Bridge]
C             F
In the cross, in the cross
C           Gsus  G
Be my glory ever.
C                F
'Til my raptured soul shall find
C                Gsus  C  F  C  F
Peace beyond the river.

[Outro]
          C               F
Beautiful cross, terrible cross,
          C               F     C2
Beautiful cross, terrible cross.
