Beneath
the Cross of Jesus
As Christians we take the place under Christ’s cross. It
is the center of salvation, comfort and Christian identity. It shows us God’s
wondrous love and our own worthlessness. We live in God’s grace, and all glory
goes to Him.
Lyrics by Elizabeth C. Clephane, arranged by Frederick C.
Maker
“Beneath the cross of Jesus, I fain would take my stand,
the shadow of a mighty Rock within a weary land; A home within the wilderness,
a rest upon the way, from the burning of the noonday heat, and the burden of
the day.
Upon that cross of Jesus mine eye at times can see the
very dying form of One who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart
with tears two wonders I confess, the wonders of His glorious love, and my own
worthlessness.
I take, O cross thy shadow for my abiding place; I ask no
other sunshine than the sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by,
to know no gain nor loss, my sinful self my only shame, My glory all the
cross.”
