一 求主使我近十架！
在此有一寶泉，
醫治活水，無代價，
流自加略山巔。
（副）十字架！十字架！永是我的誇耀！
等我被提到天家，仍是我的倚靠！
二 前我戰兢就十架，
得蒙愛憐、寬饒；
明亮晨星的光華，
在此仍將我照。
三 哦，主，當我近十架，
示我以其情景；
在祢十架蔭庇下，
天天助我前行。
四 就近十架而儆醒，
時時信靠、瞻仰；
直到被提得上升，
永遠見主面光。
1. Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain
Free to all, a healing stream,
Flows from Calv'ry'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.
3. Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me,
Help me walk from day to day
With its shadows o'er me.
4 Near the cross I'll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river.
