Je-sus, keep me near the cross,
There a pre-cious foun-tain
Free to all -- a heal-ing stream,
Flows from Cal-v'ry's moun-tain.

In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glo-ry ev-er,
Till my rap-tured soul shall find
Rest be-yond the riv-er.

Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes be-fore me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shad-ows o'er me.
Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross
