Near the Cross Misc. Gospel

[F]Jesus, [F7]keep me [Bb]near the cross,

[F]There a precious [C7]fountain

[F]Free to all,[F7] a [Bb]healing stream

[F]Flows from [C7]Calvary's moun[F]tain.

Chorus:

[F]In the cross, [Bb]in the cross,

[F]Be my glory [C7]ever;

[F]Till my raptured [Bb]soul shall find

[F]Rest be[C7]yond the ri[F]ver.

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 me 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.
