Let us lin­ger at the cross,
’Tis the place of hum­ble pray­er,
Where the soul ex­chang­es loss
For the gain it trea­sures there.
’Tis the place where Je­sus meets
All who come to seek re­lief,
Bring your bur­den at His feet,
He allays the deep­est grief.

Let us linger at the fount,
Whence the heal­ing wa­ters flow,
And the peace up­on the mount
Where His full­ness we may know.
Where the glo­ry of His grace
And His pow­er of par­don meet
All who lin­ger at the place,
All who bow at Je­sus’ feet.
