I Love You, Lord / Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross Lyrics – Matt Merker

I Love You, Lord / Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross Lyrics by Matt Merker

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
