On a hill outside Jerusalem Soldiers led Him there to die for them As they nailed the hands that created men He prayed that they would be forgiven A lowly carpenter from Galilee Loved the wealth that's found in poverty Heaven's power clothed in humility Let the cross become His destiny Chorus: Through His stripes, I am healed Through my hate, His love revealed Through my sin, shines His light Through His death He gives me life Heaven's irony The Father's love is full and free Heaven's irony Jesus loves me As the blood flowed from His wounded side Tears of love flowed as my Jesus cried And the people mocked Him as He died The innocent was crucified In a borrowed tomb they buried Him With a paupers shroud they covered Him In a grave of hardly any worth Lay the Maker of the universe Repeat Chorus (with echo in first half) Bridge And oh what a wonderful love I have known Like a river of life to my soul (river of life to my soul) And oh what love (oh what love) the Savior has shown Making my heart His home After three days as He prophesied The stone was rolled away, no one inside Jesus resurrected, glorified He's the way, the truth, the life. Repeat Chorus (with echo in first half) (He loves me) Heaven's irony (Heaven's irony) The Father's love is full and free Heaven's irony Jesus loves me Jesus loves me Jesus loves me
