72. Down at the Cross

1 Down at the cross where my Savior died,
Down where for cleansing from sin I cried;
there to my heart was the blood applied:
glory to his name.

Refrain:
Glory to his name,
Glory to his name!
There to my heart was the blood applied:
Glory to his name.

2 I am so wondrously saved from sin,
Jesus so sweetly abides within;
there at the cross where he took me in:
glory to his name. [Refrain]

3 Oh, precious fountain that saves from sin,
I am so glad I have entered in;
there Jesus saves me and keeps me clean:
glory to his name. [Refrain]

4 Come to this fountain so rich and sweet;
cast your poor soul at the Savior’s feet;
plunge in today, and be made complete:
glory to his name. [Refrain]
