Hymnal: The Little Seraph #146b (1874) First Line: When striving with the hosts of sin Refrain First Line: O, there's safety near the cross Lyrics: 1 When striving with the hosts of sin, We oft-times suffer loss, But if the conquest we would win, We must keep near the cross. Chorus: O, there's safety near the cross, Yes, there's safety near the cross, 'Mid the direst conflict sin can wage, There is safety near the cross. 2 In fierce temptation's darkest hour, When hope seems well nigh lost, O, then we'll look to Christ the more, And still keep near the cross. [Chorus] 3 Let worldings trust their hoarded gold, We count it filth and dross, In Jesus we have wealth untold, We glory in his cross. [Chorus] 4 Then let us manfully endure, Though high the waves may toss, In hope of rest on Canaan's shore, We daily bear the cross. [Chorus] Tune Title: [When striving with the hosts of sin]
