Reflection on the Cross Lyrics


 

Reflection on the Cross


Man of sorrows what a name

For the Son of God who came

Ruined sinners to reclaim

Hallelujah what a Savior


Bearing shame and Scoffing rude 

In my place condemned He stood

Sealed my pardon with His blood

Hallelujah what a Savior


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 raptured soul shall find 

Rest beyond the river


On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross

The emblem of suffering and shame

And I loved the old cross

Where the dearest and best

For a world of lost sinners was slain


So I'll cherish the old rugged cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old Rugged Cross

And exchange it someday for a crown


Jesus keep me near the cross

Near the cross
