I Saw the Cross of Jesus Words by Frederick Whitfield Music: Anonymous Words and Music public domain 253
I saw the cross of JesusWhen burdened with my sinI sought the cross of JesusTo give me peace within
I brought my soul to JesusHe cleansed it in His bloodAnd in the cross of JesusI found my peace with God
I love the cross of JesusIt tells me what I amA vile and guilty creatureSaved only thro’ the lamb
No righteousness nor meritNo beauty can I pleadYet in the cross I gloryMy title there I read
I trust the cross of JesusIn ev’ry trying hourMy sure and certain refugeMy never-failing tow’r
In ev’ry fear and conflictI more than conqueror amLiving, I’m safe, or dyingThro’ Christ, the risen Lamb
Safe in the cross of JesusThere let my weary heartStill rest in peace unshakenTill with Him, ne’er to part
And then in strains of gloryI’ll sing His wondrous pow’rWhere sin can never enterAnd death is known no more
