Shadow Of The Cross

In the shadow of the cross
I will forever abide
From satan's evil
I need not hide

My Lord, My Jesus
He is my Shield
I shall not worry
What this world may yield

Though temptations come my way
I have no cause to fear
The Rock of Ages is my stay
From sickness and sadness so drear

And when death's dew
Lies damp upon my brow
I will hear my Savior say
"It is now my child, it is now"

And I shall rise with Him
To the Streets of Gold
How beautiful, how beautiful
Just as I was told
