Clinging To The Cross

B. M. Adams • English

Primary Scripture: Jeremiah 31:25

Verse 1

Sad and weary with my longing, Filled with shame, because of sin; As I am in conscious weakness, Here I would salvation win.

Chorus

All I have I leave for Jesus, I am counting it but dross, I am coming to the Master, I am clinging to the cross.

Verse 2

O the joy of knowing Jesus, It is dawning on my soul; I am finding his salvation, And the pow’r that makes me whole.

Chorus

All I have I leave for Jesus, I am counting it but dross, I am coming to the Master, I am clinging to the cross.

Verse 3

O refine me by thy spirit, Make my earthly life sublime, With my heart a home for Jesus, Till I’m done with earth and time.

Chorus

All I have I leave for Jesus, I am counting it but dross, I am coming to the Master, I am clinging to the cross.
