Lyrics : I Love You, Lord / Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross (Live)

I love you, Lord
And I lift my voice
To worship you, O my soul, rejoice
Take joy my King
In what you hear
Let it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear
––––––––––––––––––––––

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
Till my ransomed soul shall find
Rest beyond the river

Near the cross, a trembling soul
Love and mercy found me
There the Bright and Morning Star
Shed His beams around me

In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
Till my ransomed soul shall find
Rest beyond the river

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

In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
Till my ransomed soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
Near the cross! I’ll watch and wait
Hoping, trusting ever
Till I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river

In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
Till my ransomed soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
