Lift High the Cross

Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

Come, Christians, follow where our Captain trod,
our King victorious, Christ the Son of God.

Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

Led on their way by this triumphant sign,
the hosts of God in conquering ranks combine.

Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

Each newborn soldier of the Crucified
bears on the brow the seal of him who died.


Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

O Lord, once lifted on the glorious tree,
as thou hast promised, draw the world to thee.

Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

Let every race and every language tell
of him who saves our souls from death and hell.

Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

From farthest regions let their homage bring,
and on his Cross adore their Savior King.


Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!

Set up thy throne, that earth's despair may cease
beneath the shadow of its healing peace.


Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore
his sacred Name!
