Finally, 17 or so years after it was written, Here at the Cross has been released as a track.
It was the first one of my songs where someone came up to me the first time we did it in church and asked me if I’d really written it. I didn’t know whether to be happy or insulted!

Here Here At The Cross
Verse 1
Here here at the cross
I see my sin I see my shame
I see the price the price that you paid
All that you did all that you gave
And I know there is nothing I could say or do
There is nothing could earn this gift from you
Chorus
The gift of your love
The gift of your peace
Forgiveness that’s full
Forgiveness that’s free
Freedom from guilt
Freedom from fear
Those who were far
You have brought near
Here at the cross
Here at the cross
Verse 2
Here here at the cross
I see the thorns piercing your brow
I see the spear thrust in your side
And I want to run I want hide
For I know there is nothing I could say or do
There is nothing could earn this gift from you
Verse 3
Here here at the cross
I know the truth you’ve set me free
All that I was all I have been
The old ways are gone I am made clean
And I know there is nothing I could say or do
There is nothing could earn this gift from you
