NEAR THE CROSS

 

1. 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.

       

2. Near the cross, a trembling soul,

love and mercy found me,

There the Bright and Morning Star

Sheds its beams around me.

 

3. 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.

 

4 Near the cross I'll watch and wait,

Hoping, trusting ever,

Till I reach the golden strand

Just beyond the river.
