Near The Cross


301. Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross Text: Fanny J. Crosby, 1820-1915 Music: William H. Doane, 1832-1915 Tune: NEAR THE CROSS, Meter: 76.76 with Refrain -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Jesus, keep me near the cross;

there a precious fountain,

free to all, a healing stream,

flows from Calvary'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.

(Refrain)


3. Near the cross!

O Lamb of God,

bring its scenes before me;

help me walk from day to day

with its shadow o'er me.

(Refrain)


4. Near the cross

I'll watch and wait,

hoping, trusting ever,

till I reach the golden strand

just beyond the river.

(Refrain)
