The Shadow of the Cross

Author: Mrs. L. M. Beal Bateman Hymnal: Gems and Jewels #57 (1890) First Line: God forbid that I should glory Refrain First Line: In the shadow of the cross Lyrics: 1 God forbid that I should glory In the work of human hands, I will only trust the shadow Where the Cross of Jesus stands. Chorus: In the shadow of the cross, In the shadow of the cross, I will only trust for shelter, In the shadow of the cross. 2 In a thirsty land and weary Stands a Great Rock, firm, secure, From its shadow flows a fountain Full of healing waters pure. [Chorus] 3 All for me that Rock was broken, All for me its waters flowed, All for me the cross was lifted, All for me Christ shed His blood. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [God forbid that I should glory]
