Near the Cross

Jesus keep me near the cross

There a precious fountain

Free to all a healing stream

Froze from Calvary's mountain

In the cross

In the cross

Be my glory ever

Til my raputured soul shall find

Rest beyond the river

Near the cross the trembling soul

Love and mercy found me

In the bright and morning stars

Sheds his things around me

In the cross

In the cross

Be my glory ever

Til my raputured soul shall find

Rest beyond the river

Near the cross I watch and wait

Holding trusting ever

Til I reach the golden strand

Just beyond the river

In the cross

In the cross

Be my glory ever

Til my raputured soul shall find

Rest beyond the river

In the cross

In the cross

Be my glory ever

Til my raputured soul shall find

Rest beyond the river
