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)

1 Rejoice, ye pure in heart, rejoice, give thanks and sing your glorious banner wave on high the cross of Christ your King!
[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]
3 Yes, on through life’s long path, still chanting as ye go from youth to age, by night and day, in gladness and in woe. [Refrain]
4 At last the March shall end. The weary ones shall rest; the pilgrims finds their heavily home Jerusalem, the blest. [Refrain]
5 praise God, who reigns on high, the Lord, whom we adore. The father, son, Holy Ghost, One God forevermore. [Refrain]

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!”

Refrain:
Your grace and mercy brought me through I’m living this moment because of You
I want to thank You and praise You too Your grace and mercy brought me through
1 Thank You for saving a sinner like me to tell the world salvation is free. There were times when I just didn’t do right but You watched over me all day and night. Refrain
2 Justice demanded that I should die but grace and mercy said We’ve already paid the price. I once was blind but thank God I can see. It was because grace and mercy came along and rescued me. Refrain

1. Guide my feet while I run this race. (x3)

for I don’t want to run this race in vain!
3. Stand by me while I run this race.(x3)
for I don’t want to run this race in vain!

for I don’t want to run this race in vain!

1 There is a Name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth; It sounds like music in my ear, the sweetest Name on earth.
Refrain: Oh, how I love Jesus (x3) Because He first loved me!
2 It tells me of a Savior’s love, who died to set me free; It tells me of His precious blood, the sinner’s perfect plea. (Refrain) 
3 It tells of One whose loving heart can feel my deepest woe;  Who in each sorrow bears a part, that none can bear below. (Refrain)

For God is our rock,  hope of salvation; a strong deliverer, in him I will always trust.

until the going down of the same, he’s worthy, Jesus is worthy, he’s worthy to be praised.
Praise him, praise him, praise him, praise him!
Jesus, blessed Savior, he’s worthy to be praised.
