- There is a hill I cherish Where stood a precious tree - The emblem of salvation That gift of Calvary - How is it I should profit While He is crucified - Yet as His life was taken So I was granted mine My wealth is in the cross There's nothing more I want Than just to know His love My heart is set on Christ And I will count all else as loss The greatest of my crowns mean nothing to me now For I counted up the cross and all my wealth is in the cross - I will not boast in riches I have no pride in gold - But I will boast in Jesus And in His name alone My wealth is in the cross There's nothing more I want Than just to know His love My heart is set on Christ And I will count all else as loss The greatest of my crowns mean nothing to me now For I counted up the cross and all my wealth is in the cross Oh My wealth is in the cross For You are all my heart desires My treasure my reward And there's nothing in this world compared To knowing You my God My wealth is in the cross There's nothing more I want Than just to know His love My heart is set on Christ And I will count all else as loss The greatest of my crowns mean nothing to me now For I counted up the cross and all my wealth is in the cross Yes all my wealth is in the cross - And when I stand in glory My life before the Lord - Let this be my confession My wealth is in the cross
