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