Jesus, keep me near the cross, | |
There a precious fountain— | |
Free to all, a healing stream— | |
Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain. | |
Refrain: | |
In the cross, in the cross, | |
Be my glory ever; | |
Till my raptured soul shall find | |
Rest beyond the river. | |
Near the cross, a trembling soul, | |
Love and Mercy found me; | |
There the bright and morning star | |
Sheds its beams around me. | |
Near the cross! O Lamb of God, | |
Bring its scenes before me; | |
Help me walk from day to day, | |
With its shadows o’er me. | |
Near the cross I’ll watch and wait | |
Hoping, trusting ever, | |
Till I reach the golden strand, | |
Just beyond the river. |
Jesus, keep me near the cross, | |
There a precious fountain | |
Free to all, a healing stream | |
Flows from Calv' ry' s mountain. | |
Refrain: | |
In the cross, in the cross, | |
Be my glory ever | |
Till my raptured soul shall find | |
Rest beyond the river. | |
Near the cross, a trembling soul, | |
Love and Mercy found me | |
There the bright and morning star | |
Sheds its beams around me. | |
Near the cross! O Lamb of God, | |
Bring its scenes before me | |
Help me walk from day to day, | |
With its shadows o' er me. | |
Near the cross I' ll watch and wait | |
Hoping, trusting ever, | |
Till I reach the golden strand, | |
Just beyond the river. |
Jesus, keep me near the cross, | |
There a precious fountain | |
Free to all, a healing stream | |
Flows from Calv' ry' s mountain. | |
Refrain: | |
In the cross, in the cross, | |
Be my glory ever | |
Till my raptured soul shall find | |
Rest beyond the river. | |
Near the cross, a trembling soul, | |
Love and Mercy found me | |
There the bright and morning star | |
Sheds its beams around me. | |
Near the cross! O Lamb of God, | |
Bring its scenes before me | |
Help me walk from day to day, | |
With its shadows o' er me. | |
Near the cross I' ll watch and wait | |
Hoping, trusting ever, | |
Till I reach the golden strand, | |
Just beyond the river. |
