[Chorus]
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
'Til at last my soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
[Verse 1]
Jesus, keep me near 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
'Til at last my soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
'Til at last my soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
[Verse 3]
Near the cross, I'll watch and wait
Hoping, trusting ever
Till I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river
[Chorus]
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
'Til at last my soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
'Til at last my soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
