1 Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain,
Free to all, a healing stream,
Flows from Calv'ry's mountain.

Chorus:
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever,
Till my ransomed 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
Shed His beams around me. [Chorus]

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. [Chorus]

4 Near the cross!
I'll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river. [Chorus]
