Lift Every Voice and Sing II ‎#28

28. Down at the Cross

1 Down at the cross where my Savior died,
Down where for cleansing from sin I cried;
There to my heart was the blood applied;
Glory to His name.

Refrain:
Glory to His name.
Glory to His name!
There to my heart was the blood applied;
Glory to His name.

2 I am so wondrously saved from sin,
Jesus so sweetly abides within;
There at the cross where He took me in;
Glory to His name. [Refrain]

3 O, precious fountain that saves from sin,
I am so glad I have entered in;
There Jesus saves me and keeps me clean;
Glory to His name. [Refrain]

4 Come to this fountain so rich and sweet;
Cast your poor soul at the Savior’s feet;
Plunge in today, and be made complete;
Glory to His name. [Refrain]
