There is a place of refuge A place for the weary heart Although it's filled With many people there Once you're there You'll never have to part
Ooh, a place I love so precious A fountain that saves the lost It's where I first believed And now life receives It's where I'll stay Beneath that rugged cross, cross
Although I know you despised it I'm so glad You counted up the cost Hey, to take all the shame Not to mention the pain My daily task is, is to stay near that cross To embrace that rugged cross To live beneath the cross
