There, there, at the cross!

Buildings crashed down,
earthquakes occured,
I trembled in fear.

How vast are my enemies,
and how often they made me
renounced you by force,
I wept in tears.

There, there, He hangs.
There, there, on the cross,
My God, my God, why had you forsaken me, He said,
and our eyes met.

You are my God, Jesus.
I know I am safe in your hands.
I tremble, I fear,
but I smile as our eyes met
there at the cross.

There, where all my sins
are washed away!
