Back To The Cross - Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs

I’m out on the sea filled with sorrows

Tossed like a ship who ran afore

I’m seeking the help of my Savior

By the way of the Cross, I must go

Back to the Cross and to Jesus

Back to the Cross I am called

I’ve drifted too far and I’ve wandered

From the Savior that once was my home

The sins of this world have overcome me

Have pushed and left me to roam

So I’m going to back to my Savior

Back to the Cross and home

Back to the Cross and to Jesus

Back to the Cross I am called

I’ve drifted too far and I’ve wandered

From the Savior that once was my home

The joys of these life are too fleeting

And left in troubles alone

I’ve lost the church of the stranger

I’ve drifted too far from home

Back to the Cross and to Jesus

Back to the Cross I am called

I’ve drifted too far and I’ve wandered

From the Savior that once was my home
