A little hymn

Reposted from my myspace blog, 1-26-08

Keep my heart close to the cross
To that precious moment when I was redeemed
Keep my heart close to the cross
And close to the one who gave His life for me
Keep my heart close to
The beautiful mystery
That swallowed my history
And brought me to friendship with God
Keep my heart close to the cross

Keep my eyes fixed on the cross
Though the world beckon me, "Turn away!"
Keep my eyes fixed on the cross
So in my weakest hour I may not stray
Keep my eyes fixed on
The passion and pain
Of the Lamb that was slain
So that I could have friendship with God
Keep my eyes fixed on the cross
