For the Cross is a Rock song by Matt Redman. It speaks of the great love that Christ displayed, and the punishment he endured on the Cross for our sake.
===Lyrics===
I will love you for the cross
And I will love you for the cost
Man of sufferings, bringer of my peace
You came into a world of shame
And paid the price we could not pay
Death that brought me life
Blood that brought me home
Death that life, blood that brought me home
And I love you for the cross
I'm overwhelmed by the mystery
I love you for the cost
That Jesus you would do this for me
When you were broken
You were beaten
You were punished
I go free
When you were wounded
And rejected
In your mercy
I am healed
 
Jesus Christ the sinner's friend
Does this kindness know no bounds
With your precious blood you have purchased me
Oh the mystery of the cross
You were punished, you were crushed
But that punishment has become my peace
 
Yes that punishment has become my peace
 
And I love you for the cross
I'm overwhelmed by the mystery
I love you for the cost
That Jesus you would do this for me
When you were broken
You were beaten
You were punished
I go free
When you were wounded
And rejected
In your mercy
I am healed
 
By your word I am healed
 
For the cross I thank you
And I love you for the cross...
