Episode Synopsis

Jesus, Keep Me Near the CrossFanny J. Crosby, 1820-19151 Jesus, keep me near the cross,There a precious fountain;Free to all, a healing stream,Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain.Chorus:In the cross, in the crossBe my glory ever,Till my ransomed soul shall findRest beyond the river.2 Near the cross, a trembling soul,Love and mercy found me;There the Bright and Morning StarShed His beams around me.3 Near the cross! O lamb of God,Bring its scenes before me;Help me walk from day to dayWith its shadow o’er me.4 Near the cross! I’ll watch and wait,Hoping, trusting ever;Till I reach the golden strand,Just beyond the river.Chorus director: Mark Beachy
