I thought I had it all, attained my life's desire
Till I felt Jesus cover me, in the shadow of the cross.
My understanding was so bleak,what I was seeing I longed to seek.
But how to reach it was my care.
I knew my answers were there.
Chorus
Take that step, walk that walk, see the shadow ofthe cross.
Leading you to life, by the cross, by the cross.
Bridge
Why are you sad, why do you fear, his peace and comfort so very near.
Reach out to him, he'll take your hand and help you make that lasting stand.
Crossing through the shadow of the cross.
In my dream I saw a baby, crawling by that glorious place.
Leading multitudes to heaven, ore' the shadow of the cross.
The gate swung open wide, Jesus on the other side
Beckoning the wanderers to come in.
Over the shadow of the cross.
Chorus
At the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light.
And the burdens of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith, I received my sight.
At the cross, At the cross.
