Lyrics Of The Song Beneath the Cross
Song ID 1548
beneanth the cross of Jesus i fain would take my stand the shadow of a mighty rock within a weary land a home within the wilderness a rest upon the way from the burning of the noontide heat and the burden of the day o safe and happy shelter o refuge tried and sweet o trysting place where heavens love and heavens justice meet as to the holy patriarch that wondrous dream was given so seems my saviours cross to me a ladder up to heaven there lies beneath its shadow but on the farther side the darkness of an awful grave that gapes both deep and wide and there between us stands the cross two arms outstretched to save like a watchman set to guard the way from that eternal grave upon that cross of Jesus mine eye at times can see the very dying form of one who suffered there for me and from my smitten heart with tears two wonders i confess the wonders of his glorious love and my own worthlessness i take o cross thy shadow for my abiding place i ask no other sunshine than the sunshine of his face content to let the world go by to know no gain nor loss my sinful self my only shame my glory all the cross
