They were
watching, from a distance,
and they
could not take their eyes from You,
You were
bleeding,
They were
weeping,
Faithful
sisters,
They had
followed you
They did
not understand,
They could
not see,
They were
mourning their loss,
As the
sky turned black
And the
earth turned red,
At the
Foot of the Cross.
They were
standing, near your mother
They were
so close they could hear you sighing,
All around
them, angry voices
Kiss the
darkness
And you
were dying
But they
would not leave,
They lingered
there,
No matter
the cost,
They were
staying,
They were
praying,
At the
Foot of the Cross.
Keep me
near the cross,
Near the
cross,
May I
never stray so far,
That I
cannot see
What flowed
down for me,
At the
Foot of the Cross.
Now I'm
standing, in your presence,
And I
cannot take my eyes from You,
You have
risen,
I'm forgiven,
Precious
Savior Oh I worship You
No I'm
not looking back,
And I've
heard your voice,
And I'm
stayiing here,
I've made
my choice,
But now
its' real,
Now I
kneel
At the
Foot of the Cross.
Keep me
near the Cross
Near the
Cross,
May I
never stray so far,
That I
cannot see
What flowed
down for me
At the
Foot of the Cross.
