Kings and Kingdoms all pass away
nothing on earth endures, but
the Love of God who sent His Son
is Forever and Ever yours.
May I never boast except in the
cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,
through which the world has been
crucified to me,and I to the world.
Galatians 6:14
KEEP ME NEAR THE CROSS

Keep me near the cross, dear Lord,
this is my earnest plea
For it is the symbol of the life
You sacrificed for me. 
The sinful nature that I had
kept us so far apart 
But You devised a special plan so
You could change my heart.



  You sacrificed Your only Son
for a wretched sinner like me
You gave me a gift I couldn’t earn;
by grace, You set me free. 
The cross is my reminder, Lord,
of the love You have for me 
I now have life because Jesus
died on the cross at Calvary.



  Keep me near the cross, dear Lord,
as a reminder just for me 
That before I accepted Jesus,
I was blind and could not see. 
I could not see the joy and peace
that was missing from my heart 
Through Jesus, my eyes were opened
and I made a brand new start. 



When Jesus came into my heart,
He changed me from within 
So keep me near the cross, dear Lord,
and help me turn from sin.
Lord, You never promised me
a lifetime free of strife 
You knew the perils I would face
throughout my earthly life.



Daily I face many trials,
which I don’t feel I need
But Lord, You always know what’s best,
so I will trust Your lead. 
The things that happen in my life,
I face because You know 
That only in times of adversity
can I truly learn and grow.



  Keep me near the cross, dear Lord,
when I’m down and in despair 
I only have to call Your name
and I know that You are there. 
I know You will forgive me Lord,
even when I sometimes slide 
Remind me of the cross, dear Lord,
and keep me near Your side. 



Since Jesus came to earth as man
in human form like me 
I know now how He suffered
when He died upon that tree. 
He felt the same things that I feel;
rejection, hurt and pain 
Because He was a human
when to this earth He came.



Lord, You could have saved Your Son
from death upon that cross 
But You let Him buy my pardon;
yes, sweet Jesus paid my cost. 
And just to prove Your love for me,
You raised Him from the grave 
You gave Him victory over death
and now my soul is saved.



  By the sacrifice You freely gave,
I know you wanted me 
To accept Your gift and dwell
with You for all eternity.
Help me share the cross, dear Lord,
with those who are still lost 
So they, too, will know you as Savior
because I shared the cross.

Lord, You carry me over the troublesome waters
As You lead me to salvation
For You reached out to me when I needed You most.
My eyes are closed, I feel Your hand.
You lived and died for me
I kneel down before You and give thanks.
Holding up the cross forever and ever.

To fall in love with God
is the greatest of all romances;
to seek Him,
the greatest adventure;
to find Him,
The greatest human achievement.
