Чарльз Х. Гиффен - Jesus, keep me near the cross - ноты, текст песни (слова)

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.
