|
<p>Must Jesus bear the cross alone,<br>
|
|
And all the world go free?<br>
|
|
No, there’s a cross for everyone,<br>
|
|
And there’s a cross for me.</p>
|
|
<p>How happy are the saints above,<br>
|
|
Who once went sorrowing here!<br>
|
|
But now they taste unmingled love,<br>
|
|
And joy without a tear.</p>
|
|
<p>The consecrated cross I’ll bear<br>
|
|
Till death shall set me free;<br>
|
|
And then go home my crown to wear,<br>
|
|
For there’s a crown for me.</p>
|
|
<p>Upon the crystal pavement down<br>
|
|
At Jesus’ piercèd feet,<br>
|
|
Joyful I’ll cast my golden crown<br>
|
|
And His dear Name repeat.</p>
|
|
<p>O precious cross! O glorious crown!<br>
|
|
O resurrection day!<br>
|
|
When Christ the Lord from heav’n comes down<br>
|
|
And bears my soul away.</p>
