At the Foot of the Cross

I know God is drawing me here, to the foot of the cross. I need to linger here. I need to gaze afresh at my saviour crucified.

Kathryn Scott's song "At the Foot of the Cross" is beautiful and pure. On You Tube you can watch a powerful and moving video of her song . I really appreciate and love her verses and chorus. The following extra verses (3, 4 and 5 )are my own personal expression which I hope can be sung to her lovely melody and interjected with her chorus or feel free to simply read if you wish.

Kathryn Scott's chorus lyrics:
And you've won my heart
Yes you've won my heart
Now I can trade these ashes in for beauty
And wear forgiveness like a crown
Coming to kiss the feet of mercy
I lay every burden down
At the foot of the cross

(Verse 3)
At the foot of the cross
We're face to face with pain
Then I feel your heart
For a weak and suffering World.

Chorus

(Verse 4 )
At the foot of the cross
My heart is broke afresh.
Mysterious, wonder and awe
To my knees I fall down.

Chorus

(Verse 5 )
At the foot of the cross
My pain I lay down
I feel peace and whole
Freedom you have given to me.
