Representative Text

1. Wand’rer, come, there’s room for thee,
At the cross of Jesus;
Come and taste salvation free
At the cross of Jesus.

Refrain
Blessèd cross! precious cross!
There my hopes are twining;
There I see a Father’s love
Through a Savior shining.

2. Come and bring thy burden now
To the cross of Jesus;
Lay thy burning, throbbing brow
At the cross of Jesus. [Refrain]

3. O what comfort thou wilt find
At the cross of Jesus;
Love thy broken heart will bind
At the cross of Jesus. [Refrain]

4. See the crimson waters flow
At the cross of Jesus;
Come and tell thy every woe
At the cross of Jesus. [Refrain]
