Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth Cecilia Clephane Hymnal: Mor1995 #329 (1995) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I long to take my stand; the shadow of a mighty rock within a weary land, a home within the wilderness, a rest upon the way, from the burning of the noontide heat and burdens of the day. 2 Upon the cross of Jesus, my eye by faith can see the very dying form of one who suffered there for me. And from my contrite heart, with tears, two wonders I confess: the wonder of his glorious love and my unworthiness. 3 The shadow of your cross, Lord, be my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than the sunshine of your face; content to let the world go by, to know no gain nor loss, my sinful self my only shame, my glory all, your cross.

Yet your sinless death has brought us life eternal, peace and rest; only what your grace hath taught us calms the sinner's deep distress. 3 Jesus, may our hearts be burning with more fervent love for you; may our eyes be ever turning to behold your cross anew till in glory, parted never from the blessed Savior's side, graven in our hearts forever dwell the cross, the Crucified.
