At the Foot of the Cross

Bring your sorrows and sins to the foot of the cross
This is where life begins to make sense of the loss
This is where the debt is paid  and this is what it cost
At the foot of the cross lies mercy's seat
This is where the broken life is made complete

For the ground there is level and we all are the same
Sinners saved by the power of the Blood and by His name
For the great exchange now changes every rule of the game
And gain replaces our loss
We are saved at the foot of the cross.

Where the curse is reversed 
Tho you bring Him your worst
at the foot of the cross we are blessed
For the forsaken son of dust
Was made sin for each of us
So we could become His righteousness 

At the cross of Cal'v'ry  is the crossroads of all time
Where judgment was poured our for all the sins of all mankind
And it is all sufficient  to atone for yours and mine
For a substitute paid for every bit of what it cost
There's forgiveness at the foot of the cross.
