The Way of the Cross Leads Home
The sign of the cross I triumphantly bear
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #145 (1903) Topics: Hope The Cross Lyrics: 1 The sign of the cross I triumphantly bear,
Though none of my kindred that emblem may wear.
I joyfully follow the champions of right,
Who march on to glory with weapons of might.
2 The Pillar that guides us through peril and strife,
The Rock that is cleft, giving waters of life,
Is Christ and His cross. By His Spirit and Word
The heart He refreshes, our Saviour and Lord.
3 O Shepherd, abide with us, care for us still,
And feed us and lead us and teach us Thy will,
And when in Thy heavenly fold we shall be
Our thanks and our praises we'll render to Thee.
The sign of the cross I triumphantly bear
In His own raiment clad
Author: Edward Monro Hymnal: The Hymnal #163a (1916) Meter: 6.4.6.3 D Topics: The Story of the Cross Lyrics:
In his own raiment clad,
With his blood dyed
Women walk sorrowing
By his side.
[Heavy that cross to him,
Weary the weight;
One who will help him waits
At the gate.
See! they are traveling
On the same road;
Simon is sharing with
Him the load.]
O whither wandering
Bear they that tree.
He who first carries it,
Who is he?
145
Follow to Calvary;
Tread where he trod,
He who for ever was
Son of God.
[You who would love him stand,
Gaze at his face:
Tarry awhile on your
Earthly race.
As the swift moments fly
Through the blest week,
Read the great story the
Cross will teach.]
Is there no beauty to
You who pass by,
In that lone figure which
Marks that sky?
On the cross lifted
Thy face we scan,
Bearing that cross for us,
Son of man.
Thorns form thy diadem,
Rough wood thy throne;
For us thy blood is shed,
Us alone.
No pillow under thee
To rest thy head;
Only the splintered cross
Is thy bed.
[Nails pierced thy hands and feet,
Thy side the spear;
No voice is nigh to say
Help is near.
Shadows of midnight fall,
Though it is day:
Thy friends and kinsfolk stand
Far away.
Loud is thy bitter cry;
Sunk on thy breast
Hangeth thy bleeding head
Without rest.
Loud scoffs the dying thief,
Who mocks at thee:
Can it, my Savior, be
All for me?
Gazing, afar from thee,
Silent and lone,
Stand those few weepers thou
Callest thine own.
I see thy title, Lord,
Inscribed above;
“Jesus of Nazareth,”
King of Love.]
What, O my Savior,
Here didst thou see,
Which made thee suffer and
Die for me?
[Child of my grief and pain,
Watched by my love;
I came to call thee to
Realms above.
147
I saw thee wandering
Far off from me:
In love I seek for thee;
Do not flee.
For thee my blood I shed,
For thee alone;
I came to purchase thee,
For mine own.
Weep thou not for my grief,
Child of my love:
Strive to be with me in
Heaven above.]
O I will follow thee,
Star of my soul,
Through the deep shades of life
To the goal.
Yea, let thy cross be borne
Each day by me;
Mind not how heavy, if
But with thee.
Lord, if thou only wilt,
Make us thine own,
Give no companion, save
Thee alone.
Grant through each day of life
To stand by thee;
With thee, when morning breaks
Ever to be.
Amen.

In His own raiment clad
When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #175 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Cross Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
save in the death of Christ, my God!
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them through his blood.
3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down.
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?
4 Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were a present far too small.
Love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all.

Glorying in the cross
In the cross of Christ I glory
Author: John Bowring Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #231a (1899) Topics: Glorying in the Cross 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 more 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.
5 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.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: RATHBUN
