#### NEAR THE CROSS

1)
JESUS KEEP ME NEAR THE CROSS,
THERE A PRECIOUS FOUNTAIN;
FREE TO ALL A HEALING STREAM,
FLOWED FROM CALVARY'S MOUNTAIN.

2)
NEAR THE CROSS A TREMBLING SOUL,
LOVE AND MERCY FOUND ME;
THERE THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR,
SHEDS ITS BEAMS AROUND ME.

3)
NEAR THE CROSS O LAMB OF GOD,
BRING THE SCENES BEFORE ME;
HELP ME WALK FROM DAY TO DAY,
WITH ITS SHADOWS O'ER ME.

4)
NEAR THE CROSS I'LL WATCH AND WAIT,
HELPING TRUSTING EVER:
TILL I REACH THE GOLDEN STRAND,
JUST BEYOND THE RIVER.

CHORUS
IN THE CROSS, IN THE CROSS,
BE MY GLORY EVER;
TILL MY RAPTURED SOUL SHALL FIND,
REST BEYOND THE RIVER.
