Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 you chose  the cross with every breath
 The perfect  life, the perfect death
 You chose the cross
 A crown  of thorns you wore for us
 And crowned  us with eternal life
 You chose the cross
 And though  your soul was overwhelmed  with pain
 Obedient  to death you  overcame
 I'm lost in wonder
 I'm lost in love
 I'm lost in praise  for evermore
 Because of Jesus'  unfailing love
 I am forgiven
 I am restored
 you loosed the chords of sinfulness
 And broke the chains of my disgrace
 You chose the cross
 Up from the grave victorious
 You rose again so glorious
 You choss the cross
 The sorrow that surrounded you was mine
 "Yet not my will but yours be done" you cried
