Close to Thy Cross

Author: Josephus Anderson, D.D. Hymnal: Glorious Praise #5 (1904) First Line: Close, close to thy cross, O Christ! Lyrics: 1 Close, close to Thy cross, O Christ! My guilty soul would fly; Thy flowing blood can wash me white From sins of crimson dye! Refrain: Close to Thy cross, close to Thy cross, Jesus, my Lord, I cling; Shelter me there, shelter me there, ’Neath Thy protecting wing. 2 Close, close to Thy cross, O Christ! My burdened soul would go; There’s sweet relief in Thy warm love For every grief I know! [Refrain] 3 Close, close to Thy cross, O Christ! My tempted soul would stand; No foe can harm, no work o’ertask, While under Thy kind hand! [Refrain] 4 Close, close to Thy cross, O Christ! My weary soul would rest; No wrath, no fear, no shadows there Disturb my quiet breast! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Close, close to thy cross, O Christ!]
