Lyrics Jesus Keep Me Near the Cross - Joslin Grove Choral Society

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
there a precious fountain,
free to all, a healing stream,
flows from Calvary's mountain.

In the cross, in the cross,
be my glory ever;
'til my raptured soul shall find,
rest beyond the river.

Near the cross I'll watch and wait,
hoping, trusting ever,
'til I reach the golden strand,
just beyond the river.

In the cross, in the cross,
be my glory ever;
'til my raptured soul shall find,
rest beyond the river.

In the cross, in the cross,
be my glory ever;
'til my raptured soul shall find,
rest beyond the river.
