Lyics

Cling to the Crucified!

His eye shall guard thee well-

For thee, fast from his side,

The crimson current fell.



Cling to the Crucified!

My weary feet in peace

His tender hand shall guide

Till all thy wanderings cease.



Cling to the Crucified!

His love the golden door

For thee shall open wide,

And bless thee evermore.
