Beneath The Cross of Jesus Lyrics

Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1872


  • Verse 1
  • 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 noontide heat, and the burden of the day.

  • Verse 2
  • 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 stricken heart with tears two wonders I confess;
  • The wonders of redeeming love and my own worthlessness.

  • Verse 3
  • 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 or loss,
  • My sinful self my only shame, my glory all the cross.
