Near the Cross Songtext

von Michael W. Smith

Jesus keep me near the cross
There a precious fountain
Free to all a healing stream
Froze from Calvary's mountain

In the cross
In the cross
Be my glory ever
Til my raputured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river

Near the cross the trembling soul
Love and mercy found me
In the bright and morning stars
Sheds his things around me

In the cross
In the cross
Be my glory ever
Til my raputured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river

Near the cross I watch and wait
Holding trusting ever
Til I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river

In the cross
In the cross
Be my glory ever
Til my raputured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river

In the cross
In the cross
Be my glory ever
Til my raputured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
