In The Cross Of Christ I Glory Hymn Lyrics

1

In the cross of Christ I glory,

Towering o’er the wrecks of time ;

All the light of sacred story

Gathers round its head sublime.

2

When the woes of life o’ertake me,

Hopes deceive, and fears annoy,

Never shall the cross forsake me ;

Lo ! it glows with peace and joy.

3

When the sun of bliss is beaming

Light and love upon my way,

From the cross the radiance streaming

Adds new lustre to the day.

4

Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,

By the cross are sanctified ;

Peace is there that knows no

measure,

Joys that through all time abide.
