Jesus, Keep Me Near The Cross,
There A Precious Fountain-
Free To All, A Healing Stream-
Flows From Calvary’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.
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.
