This song came to my heart about a week ago. It's such a great timeless gospel hymn!! I remember singing it in church! I'm glad I was able to find it here!! Yes indeed we are closer everyday to the coming of our Lord Jesus!! Let's keep praying witnessing and encouraging one another in the body of Christ!!
Maybe this song was translated into another language, then back to English. It's close enough. All the verses are beautiful and wonderful. We can sing every one of them in praise to God for the peace that lies just beyond. Hallelujah brethren, we are very close to the Eternal Kingdom!
This Song Has Blessed my life and will Continue to Bless me. My singular Prayer for the Writer of this Hymn is That She Finds Rest Beyond The River...Haleluyah...
The significance of the Cross in our Christian lives cannot be over emphasized, to be victorious one has to choose the Cross without hesitation. Jesus Christ died for all believers; what is important to make a closer step each day towards the golden strand with the Messiah by your side in order to attain the peaceful rest beyond that river.
Our Christian life altogether depends on two things: the cross and the life-giving Spirit. The significance of the cross is of two aspects: the aspect of redemption and the aspect of life. Christianity knows only the shallow aspect of redemption. Stanza 1 of Hymns, #1059 says,
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;
We can compare these hymns by A. B. Simpson to hymn #1059, another hymn on knowing the cross of Christ. The first verse and the chorus say:
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;
This truth in Galatians is not conveyed in hymn #1059. This hymn was written before A. B. Simpson's writings. At the time it was written, the revelation concerning the Lord's subjectiveness was not that deep. It is a good hymn, but it is obvious that the hymns by Brother Simpson are of a much higher standard.
