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)
