Take Up Your Cross, The Saviour Said,
If You Would My Disciple Be;
Deny Yourself, The World Forsake,
And Humbly Follow After Me.
Take Up Your Cross, Be Not Ashamed!
Let Not Disgrace Your Spirit Fill!
For God Himself Endured To Die
Upon A Cross, On Calvary’s Hill.
Take Up Your Cross, Which Gives You Strength,
Which Makes Your Trembling Spirit Brave:
‘Twill Guide You To A Better Home
And Lead To Victory O’er The Grave.
Take Up Your Cross, And Follow Christ,
Nor Think Till Death To Lay It Down;
For Only They Who Bear The Cross
May Hope To Wear The Glorious Crown.
