LYRICS:
Verse 1
On a hill in Israel
Mercy spoke for me
Mercy spoke for me
Mercy spoke for me
It was on Golgotha's tree
His death brought liberty
His death brought liberty
His death brought liberty

Chorus 1
May I never boast
In anything
Except the cross
Of Jesus Christ
May I not forget
The blood He shed
It is by His death
I am alive
Because of Christ, I am alive

Verse 2
What a humble sacrifice
Love that washed me clean
Love that washed me clean
Love that washed me clean
What a blessed mystery
His punishment, my peace
His punishment, my peace
His punishment, my peace

Chorus 2
May I never boast
In anything
Except the cross
Of Jesus Christ
May I not forget
The blood He shed
It is by His death
I am alive

May I never boast
In anything
Except the cross
Of Jesus Christ
