Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Созерцать душою
Как с Голгофы благодать
В мир течет рекою
У креста, у креста
Честь моя и слава
Там спасенья полнота
У креста меня нашли
Благодать и сила
И звезда святой любви
Путь мой озарила
У креста, у креста
Честь моя и слава
Там спасенья полнота
На блаженство - право
У креста, у креста
Честь моя и слава
Там спасенья полнота
На блаженство - право
У креста, у креста
Честь моя и слава
Там спасенья полнота
На блаженство - право

Melody is same as what we used to sing in Sunday School .."Daniel was a man of God'. Russian lyrics is different and perhaps more beautiful.
Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain,
Free to all—a healing stream,
Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain.
In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
From the cross my ransomed soul
Nothing then shall sever.
Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and mercy found me;
There the Bright and Morning Star
Sheds its beams around me.
Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shadow o’er me.
Near the cross I’ll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I see my Savior’s face,
Leave His presence never.

1.Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain,
Free to all—a healing stream,
Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain. In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
From the cross my ransomed soul
Nothing then shall sever.

I can speak christian too. All it took was reading the title, and I could already hear some of the words.

You could always push the cc button, and then you would also understand the actual beautiful words.

I've been a Christian for almost 70 years. Time can minimize the glory of the salvation experience. Thank you so very much for this awesome reminder of what my savior did for me. I was recently diagnosed with cancer; I don't know what the future holds for me, but I thank you from the bottom of of my heart for this remainder of what awaits me if I don't beat this disease. I've been playing this in a loop for the past few hours. I just can't get enough of it! Thank you again and God bless you!
