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 noon- tide heat, and the burden of the day.

O safe and happy shelter, O refuge tried and sweet,

O trysting- place where Heaven's love, and Heaven's justice meet!

As to the holy Patriarch that wondrous dream was given,

So seems my Saviour's Cross, to me, a ladder up to Heaven.

5 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.

3 There lies beneath its shadow, but on the further side,

The darkness of an awful grave that gapes both deep and wide; And there between us stands the Cross, two Arms out- stretched to save, Like a watchman set to guard the way from that eternal grave. 4 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 confess­The wonders of His glorious love, and my own worthlessness.

Amen.
