If it were up to me
There'd be an easier road than Calvary
If it were up to me
You would have escaped the suffering
But You saved me through what I would have seen as a tragedy
I used to think that
Love should never have to bleed
I used to think that
Life was all about the dream
But love is a mess
And life is a death
And you can't escape the cost
Yea love is a mess
The story of the cross
If it were up to me
Life would be more like the movies
If it were up to me
I would choose a storybook ending
But I would never see the beauty of reality
I used to think that
Love should never have to bleed
I used to think that
Life was all about the dream
But love is a mess
And life is a death
And you can't escape the cost
Yea love is a mess
The story of the cross
The story of the cross
God became a man
Heaven kissed the Earth
The proof is in His hands
That love is worth the hurt
You came down to meet my need
And saw beauty in the mess of me
I used to think that
Love should never have to bleed
I used to think that
Life was all about the dream
But love is a mess
And life is a death
And you can't escape the cost
Yea love is a mess
The story of the cross
The beauty of the cross
Can you believe the pain you see
Is more than just a tragedy
Life is a death
Love is a mess
The story of the cross
The beauty of the cross
