Fanny J. Crosby 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. Near the cross, a trembling soul, Love and mercy found me; There the bright and morning star Sheds its 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
