Je-sus, keep me near the cross; there a precious foun-tain,

E A E B7 A E B7 E
Free to all, a healing stream, flows from Calvary’s moun-tain.

In the cross, in the cross, be my glory ev-er,

Till my rap-tured soul shall find rest beyond the ri-ver.
[[Full Lyrics]] [Verse 1] Jesus, keep me near the cross; There a precious fountain, Free to all, a healing stream, Flows from Calvary’s mountain. [Refrain] In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever, Till my raptured soul shall find Rest beyond the river. [Verse 2] Near the cross, a trembling soul, Love and mercy found me; There the bright and Morning Star Sheds its beams around me. [Verse 3] Near the cross! O Lamb of God, Bring its scenes before me; Help me walk from day to day With its shadow o’er me. [Verse 4] Near the cross I’ll watch and wait, Hoping, trusting ever, Till I reach the golden strand Just beyond the river.
