(Sheet Music)

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

Refrein:

In the cross, in the cross,

Be my glory ever,

Till my raptured soul shall find

Rest beyond the river.

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

3. 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.

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

1. Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
    Hear my humble cry;
    While on others thou art smiling,
    Do not pass me by.

Refrein:

Saviour, Saviour, hear my humble cry,

While on others Thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

2. Let me at a throne of mercy
    Find a sweet relief;
    Kneeling there in deep contrition,
    Help my unbelief.  

3. Trusting only in Thy merit,
    Would I seek Thy face;
    Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
    Save me by Thy grace.  

4. Thou the Spring of all my comfort,
    More than life to me;
    Whom have I on earth beside Thee,
    Whom in heav'n but Thee.

1. Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty!
    Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee;
    Holy, Holy, Holy! Merciful and Mighty!
    God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!  

2. Holy, Holy, Holy! All the saints adore thee,
    Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
    Cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
    Who wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

3. Holy, Holy, Holy! Though the darkness hide thee,
    Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see,
    Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee
    Perfect in pow'r, in love, and purity.  

4. Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!
    All thy works shall praise thy Name, in earth and sky and sea;
    Holy, Holy, Holy! Merciful and Mighty!
    God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

1. I will sing the wondrous story
    Of the Christ who died for me,
    How He left His home in glory
    For the cross of Calvary.

Refrain:

Yes, I’ll sing the wondrous story

Of the Christ who died for me,

Sing it with the saints in glory,

Gathered by the crystal sea.

2. I was lost but Jesus found me,
    Found the sheep that went astray,
    Threw His loving arms around me,
    Drew me back into His way.

3. I was bruised but Jesus healed me;
    Faint was I from many a fall;
    Sight was gone, and fears possessed me,
    But He freed me from them all.

4. Days of darkness still come o’er me,
    Sorrow’s path I often tread,
    But the Savior still is with me;
    By His hand I’m safely led.

1. Hymn: Rock of Ages

Hymn: Rock of Ages

Author: Augustus M. Toplady (1740-1778)

(Vocal)

(Music)

(Sheet Music)

1. Rock of ages shelter me,
    Let me hide myself in thee!
    Let the water, and the blood,
    From thy wounded side which flow'd,
    Be of sin the double cure,
    Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

2. Not the labour of my hands
    Can fulfil thy law's demands;
    Could my zeal no respite know,
    Could my tears for ever flow,
    All for sin could not atone,
    Thou must save, and thou alone.

3. Nothing in my hand I bring,
    Simply to thy cross I cling;
    Naked come to thee for grace;
    Helpless, look to thee for grace;
    Black, I to the fountain fly,
    Wash me, Saviour, or I die!

4. While I draw this fleeting breath,
    When mine eye-strings break in death,
    When I soar to worlds unknown,
    See thee on thy judgment throne,
    Rock of ages shelter me,
    Let me hide myself in thee.
