Verse 1
Jesus keep me in the cross, There a precious fountain Free to all, a healing stream Flows from Calvary's mountain.
Chorus
In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever; Till my raptured soul shall find Rest beyond the river.
Verse 2
In the cross, a trembling soul, Love and mercy found me; There the bright and morning star Sheds its beams around me.
Verse 3
In the cross! O Lamb of God, Bring its scenes before me; Help me walk from day to day, With its shadows o'er me.
Verse 4
In the cross I'll watch and wait Hoping, trusting ever, Till I reach the golden strand, Just beyond the river.
