Near the Cross
十架為榮耀
Jesus, keep me near the cross,
求主使我依十架,
There a precious fountain
在彼有生命水,
Free to all, a healing stream
由各各他山流下,
Flows from Calvary’s mountain.
白白赐人洗罪.
(Chorus)
In the cross, in the cross,
十字架, 十字架,
Be my glory ever;
永是我的榮耀!
Till my raptured soul shall find
我眾罪都洗清潔,
Rest beyond the river.
惟靠耶蘇寶血!
(Verse 2)
Near the cross, a trembling soul,
我與主同釘十架,
Love and mercy found me;
和祂同葬同活,
There the bright and morning star
今基督居住我心,
Sheds its beams around me.
不在是我活着.
(Verse 3)
Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
我立志不傳別的,
Bring its scenes before me;
只傳耶蘇基督!
Help me walk from day to day,
並祂為我釘十架,
With its shadows o’er me.
復活作救贖主.
(Verse 4)
Near the cross I’ll watch and wait
我願意別無所誇,
Hoping, trusting ever,
但誇救主十架!
Till I reach the golden strand,
世界對我已釘死,
Just beyond the river.
我以死對待它.
