At the Foot of the Cross

At the foot of the cross,
There my retreat
There where I found my Lord
His mercy Sweet.
There found I Heaven’s grace
His presence in that place
There at His feet,
There at His feet.

At the foot of the cross,
There my retreat.
From earth’s great driving wind,
Or scorching heat.
There I find open arms
Safety from all world’s harms
There at His feet
There at His feet.

At the foot of the cross
There my retreat.
There ev’ry morn and night
I Jesus meet.
There I find joy and rest
There I find Heaven’s best
There at His feet,
There at His feet.
