\nJesus, keep me near the cross;
\nthere a precious fountain,
\nfree to all, a healing stream,
\nflows from Calvary’s mountain.<\/p>\n
Refrain
\nIn the cross, in the cross,
\nbe my glory ever,
\ntill my raptured soul shall find
\nrest beyond the river.<\/p>\n
2
\nNear the cross, a trembling soul,
\nlove and mercy found me;
\nthere the bright and morning star
\nsheds its beams around me.<\/p>\n
3
\nNear the cross! O Lamb of God,
\nbring its scenes before me;
\nhelp me walk from day to day
\nwith its shadow o’er me.<\/p>\n
4
\nNear the cross I’ll watch and wait,
\nhoping, trusting ever,
\ntill I reach the golden strand<\/p>\n
