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.
