 1  Jesus, keep me near the cross,

       There a precious fountain,

    Free to all — a healing stream,

       Flows from Calv'ry's mountain.

 

In the cross, in the cross,

   Be my glory ever;

From the cross my ransomed soul

   Nothing then shall sever.

 

 2  Near the cross, a trembling soul,

       Love and mercy found me;

    There the Bright and Morning Star

       Sheds its beams around me.

 

In the cross, in the cross,

   Be my glory ever;

From the cross my ransomed soul

   Nothing then shall sever.

 

 3  Near the cross! O Lamb of God,

       Bring its scenes before me;

    Help me walk from day to day,

       With its shadows o'er me.

 

In the cross, in the cross,

   Be my glory ever;

From the cross my ransomed soul

   Nothing then shall sever.

 

 4  Near the cross I'll watch and wait,

       Hoping, trusting ever,

    Till I see my Savior's face,

       Leave His presence never.

 

In the cross, in the cross,

   Be my glory ever;

From the cross my ransomed soul

   Nothing then shall sever.
