Sanjeeb Sircar's video: Jesus Keep Me Near The Cross Christian Song Hymn Organ and Voice Keyboards: Sanjeeb Sircar

A solemn introspective hymn played and sung on Organ / Keyboards by Sanjeeb Sircar. The tune was composed by William Howard Doane before Fanny Crosby wrote the lyrics, published in 1869, based on Galatians 6-14, from The Holy Bible. 'But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world'. It remains one of Crosby's best-known hymns and has been translated into several international languages, including Hindi (Saleeb Kay Pass). The poetical and literary content expressed is noteworthy. Lyrics: 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. Near the cross, a trembling soul, Love and mercy found me, There the Bright and Morning Star Shed its beams around me. Near the cross! O Lamb of God, Brings its scenes before me; Help me walk from day to day, With its shadows o'er me. Near the cross I'll watch and wait, Hoping, trusting ever, Till I reach the golden strand Just beyond the river.
