Jesus Keep Me Near the Cross歌词

Jesus keep me near the cross
There a precious fountain
Free to all a healing stream flows
From Calv'ry's mountain.
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.
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.
--- Instrumental ---
Near the cross I'll watch and wait
Hoping trusting ever
Till I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river.
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river...
