Misc Praise Songs – Beneath The Cross Of Jesus (Guitar)

C                             G7                 C
Beneath the cross of Jesus, I fain would take my stand,

E7              Am      Dm   Am     F F7    E7
The shadow of a might-y Rock within a weary land;

C                       C7      F    A        Dm
A home within the wilderness, a rest upon the way,

         G              C        C7           C      G7     C
From the burning of the noontide heat and the burden of the day.

C                            G7               C
Upon the cross of Jesus Mine eye at times can see

E7             Am      Dm  Am     F     F7        E7
The very dying form of One who suffered there for me;

C                               C7         F        A   Dm
And from my stricken heart with tears, two wonders I confess:

    G            C       C7          C      G7     C
The wonders of redeeming love and my unworthi-     ness.

C                               G7         C
I take, O cross, thy shadow for my abiding place:

E7             Am       Dm   Am     F     F7     E7
I ask no other sunshine than the sunshine of His face;

C                           C7     F       A        Dm
Content to let the world go by, to know no gain nor loss;

   G              C    C7        C     G7      C
My sinful self my only shame, my glory all the cross.
