Near The Cross
by Dallas Holm

Album: Foundations

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,
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest, beyond the river.

Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and mercy found me;
There the Bright and Morning Star
Sheds its beams around me.

(Chorus)

Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help my walk from day to day
With its shadows o'er me.

(Chorus)

Near the cross I'll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river.

(Chorus)
