Draw Me Near

Jesus keep me near the cross

I need a refuge now

Evil mounts at such a cost

Lest to Thee I bow

For the cross shows me the way

How to overcome

Death no longer had-its sway

Once your work was done

Chorus

To the cross draw me near

To righteousness displayed 

Then take me- through the vale of tears

To resurrection day

Help me to take up my cross

So to follow you

Be my gain thru every loss

My treasure that is true

“Easy is my yoke” you said

Narrow is the way

You will raise me from the dead

On this world’s last day…

Chorus

To the cross draw me near

To righteousness displayed 

Then take me through the vale of tears

To Resurrection Day
