Take Up Thy Cross (Everest) (EN 3049)

EN 3049 Take Up Thy Cross (Everest)

Matt.16.24

Versi Version 1

1

“Take up thy cross,” the Savior said,

“If thou wouldst My disciple be;

Deny thyself, the world forsake,

And humbly follow after Me.”

2

Take up thy cross, let not its weight

Fill thy weak spirit with alarm;

His strength shall bear thy spirit up,

And brace thy heart and nerve thine arm.

3

Take up thy cross, nor heed the shame,

Nor let thy foolish pride rebel;

Thy Lord for thee the cross endured,

And saved thy soul from death and hell.

4

Take up thy cross then in His strength,

And calmly sin’s wild deluge brave,

’Twill guide thee to a better home,

It points to glory o’er the grave.

5

Take up thy cross and follow Christ,

Nor think til death to lay it down;

For only those who bear the cross

May hope to wear the glorious crown.

6

To Thee, great Lord, the One in Three,

All praise forevermore ascend:

O grant us in our home to see

The heavenly life that knows no end.
