NEAR THE CROSS - EDDY ARNOLD

Jesus keep me near the cross:
There a precious fountain,
Free to all a healing stream flows
From Calv'ry's mountain.

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

Near the cross a trembling soul
Love and mercy found me,
There the bright and morning star
Sheds its beams around me.

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

I was raised a non-Christian but my father listened to Eddy Arnold all the time ...why didn't I get the message of the Gospel then instead of when I was 40 yrs old.....
