Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross

1. Jesus, keep me near the cross; there a precious fountain, free to all, a healing stream, flows from Calvary’s mountain. 
Refrain:
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. (Refrain
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. (Refrain
4. Near the cross I’ll watch and wait, hoping, trusting ever, till I reach the golden strand just beyond the river. (Refrain)

Rejoice Ye Pure In Heart

[Refrain]
Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice give thanks and sing.

2 Bright youth and snow-crowned age, strong men and maidens meek, raise high your free, exulting song, G-d’s wondrous praises speak. [Refrain]

5 praise God, who reigns on high, the Lord, whom we adore. The father, son, Holy Ghost, One God forevermore. [Refrain]

Tell Me The Stories of Jesus

1. Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear; things I would ask him to tell me if he were here: scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea, stories of Jesus, tell them to me. 
2. First let me hear how the children stood round his knee, and I shall fancy his blessing resting on me; words full of kindness, deeds full of grace, all in the lovelight of Jesus’ face. 3. Into the city I’d follow the children’s band, waving a branch of the palm tree high in my hand; one of his heralds, yes, I would sing loudest hosannas, “Jesus is King!”
