AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS
Fearing the battle was over
And I’d already lost the war,
I
was tired of trying and failing
I just couldn’t fight anymore.
So, dragging my battle-scarred body,
I crawled to the foot
of the cross.
And I sobbed, ‘Oh please, Father forgive me.
But
I tried….I tried….and still lost.’
Then the air grew silent around me.
I heard his voice just as
clear as the dawn;
‘Oh, My child, though you are tired and weary,
You can’t stop, you have to go on.’
At the foot of the Cross, where I met Him,
At the foot of
the Cross, where He died,
I felt love, as I knelt in His
presence.
I felt hope, as I looked in His eyes.
Then He gathered me lovingly to Him,
As around us God’s light
clearly shone.
And together we walked through my lifetime
To
heal every wound I had known.
I found bits of my dreams, long forgotten,
And piece of my
life on the floor.
But I watched as He tenderly blessed them,
And my life was worth living once more.
I knew then why I had been losing.
I knew why I had not grown.
At the foot of the Cross came the answer:
I’d been fighting the
battle alone.
At the foot of the Cross, where I met Him,
At the foot of
the Cross, where He died.
Then I knew I could face any challenge
Together….just my Lord and I.
