靠近十架

詩集：生命聖詩，367首

求主使我近十架，因有寶貴泉源，
醫治活水免代價，由各各他流下。

我戰兢靠近十架，蒙主慈愛恩待，
那裏有明亮晨星，榮光四面照來。

求主使我近十架，思念昔日情景，
在主十架蔭庇下，日日奔走天程。

儆醒等候十架前，信心盼望日堅，
直到渡過死之河，安抵黃金美岸。

副歌

十字架，十字架，永遠是我榮耀，
直到我歡聚天家，仍誇主十字架。

 

Near the Cross

Words: Fanny Crosby, 1869
Music: W. Howard Doane

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain
Free to all, a healing stream
Flows from Calvary's mountain.

Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and mercy found me;
There the Bright and Morning Star
Sheds its beams around me.

Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shadows o'er me.

Near the cross I'll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river.

Refrain

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