Near The Cross | Fanny Crosby | Joel Howard

Jesus, keep me near the cross, There a precious fountain; Free to all, a healing stream, Flows from Calv'ry's mountain. Refrain: 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 Shed His beams around me. [Refrain] 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. [Refrain] Near the cross! I'll watch and wait, Hoping, trusting ever; Till I reach the golden strand, Just beyond the river. [Refrain] Hymn by Fanny Crosby (1869) Public Domain. Sung here by Joel Howard.
