Waiting at the Cross

lyricist: Ella Cheek, 1875
Composer: J. H. Anderson

Jesus

I am wait­ing now

Weary

worn and weak;

At the cross I’m bend­ing low

Peace and rest I seek.

Jesus

I am wait­ing now

Longing to be blest;

Speak the bless­èd words to me

Come

I’ll give thee rest.

Long I’ve wan­dered far from Thee

In the paths of sin;

Let my sor­row plead for me

Jesus

take me in.

Chase my heart’s un­rest away

Bid its trem­bling cease;

Let me feel Thy love to­day

Give me Thy sweet peace.
