Near the Cross

SKU: 6893248823569

"Near the Cross" is an inspirational Gospel song arrangement, originally published as part of the “Hymns in Harmony” series, written by James Boersma for church/school orchestra. This arrangement can be played by various size groups and is challenging enough to be enjoyed by all ages. The time-honored music is refreshing and it gives your instrumental people a great opportunity to minister and contribute as part of the church service. As one music director once said of the "Hymns in Harmony" series, “There’s never been anything like it, before nor since.”

This arrangement has been edited from the original by Paul Hiscock and re-published exclusively by Shepherd’s Staff Ministries.

NOTE: Permission is granted to the original download purchaser to make extra copies of parts as needed.

NEAR THE CROSS

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain
Free to all- a healing stream,
Flows from Calvary's mountain.

Refrain
In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.
