Lift High the Cross Lyrics
1 Led on their way by this triumphant sign,
the hosts of God in conquering ranks combine.
Refrain:
Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim
till all the world adore his sacred name. Come, Christians, follow where the Master trod,
our King victorious, Christ the Son of God.
2 Each newborn servant of the Crucified
bears on the brow the seal of him who died.
3 O Lord, once lifted on the glorious tree,
your death has brought us life eternally.
4 So shall our song of triumph ever be:
praise to the Crucified for victory!
