At the Cross (I Was Laden Down with Sin)

I was laden down with sin Full of wickedness within In the darkness of despair, regret and loss When I heard a gentle voice And it made my heart rejoice Come find rest thou heavy laden, at the cross
At the cross, at the cross There my sins were all forgiven at the cross There my burdens rolled away There my night was turned to day There I met my blessed Saviour at the cross
Now each day I go to Him, To receive new life within And be filled with grace and power at the cross So that when temptations come All my victories’ may be won On my knees in humble prayer at the cross
When the way seems long and drear, Sore depressed and full of fear: I just stand and gaze in wonder at the cross When I see His pain and woe - All for love of me I know Joy and strength becomes my portion at the cross
Weary burdened soul today, Come to Jesus side to stay; In His blood He’ll wash your sin stains all away You will find your life abound When in brokenness you’re found Owing oneness with your Saviour at the cross
