Tune:[I lost my burden at the cross]
Composer:Robert Lowry, D. D.

67. Peace at the Cross

1 I lost my burden at the cross,
Where Jesus died for me;
My heart leaps up with holy joy,
For He hath made me free—
At the cross, at the cross,
Where Jesus died for me.

2 I found sweet pardon at the cross,
In answer to my pray’r;
Thro’ Jesus, my Redeemer Lord,
My sins lie buried there—
At the cross, at the cross,
In answer to my pray’r.

3 I rest, believing, at the cross,
In Him, the crucified,
For in His life my life is found,
His Spirit is my guide—
At the cross, at the cross,
In Him, the crucified.
