Lyrics

The Foot of the Cross

My favorite word is hallelujah
My favorite song Amazing Grace
My favorite sound is the sound of children prayin’
The foot of the Cross is my favorite place…

My favorite time is right now
My favorite step, the one I’m about to take
The greatest gift I ever got was forgiveness
‘Cause Lord knows, I’ve made my share of mistakes…

So I lift my heart, my hands, my voice
To the one who gave this life to me
Glory and honor to the Son who lived and died
And was raised to set me free
You know I long to hear that trumpet blast
So Gabriel, play on if you please

My favorite feeling is a feeling of wonder
My favorite taste the sweetness of God’s Word
My greatest comfort comes from the knowing
The very best I’ve had on earth is just an hors d’oeuvre

So I lift my heart, my hands, my voice
To the one who gave this life to me
Glory and honor to the Son who lived and died
And was raised to set me free
You know I long to hear that trumpet blast
So Gabriel, play on if you please
