Music & HymnsAt The Foot Of The Cross

"I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross." Isaiah 1:25



Words & Music: Robert Harkness, circa 1922

I met Jesus at the foot of the cross
When I was bound by sin;
Jesus met me, cleansed my heart of its dross,
He gave sweet peace within.

Refrain

I met Jesus at the foot of the cross,
I met Jesus at the foot of the cross;
All my sins were washed away;
Sin's dark night turned into day
When I met Jesus at the foot of the cross.

I found pardon at the foot of the cross,
Forgiveness full and free;
Now I love Him only, all else is loss,
His grace availed for me.

Refrain

I met Jesus when I needed Him most,
Despair possessed my soul;
I was under condemnation and lost,
When Jesus made me whole.

Refrain
