O Lamb of God Bring its scenes before me; Help me walk from day to day With its shadow o'er me Chorus In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever; Till my raptured soul shall find Rest beyond the river Verse 4 Near the cross! I'll watch and wait Hoping, trusting ever Till I reach the golden strand Just beyond the river Chorus In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever; Till my raptured soul shall find Rest beyond the river
