Text: | Bear the Cross |
Author: | Helen R. Young |
Tune: | [Bear the cross; the crown will be the brighter] |
Composer: | Robert Lowry |
1 Bear the cross; the crown will be the brighter
If through faith and patience it is won;
Weary not; thy burden will seem lighter
For the consciousness of duty done.
Refrain:
Bear the cross, bear the cross;
All the brighter will be the crown;
Bear the cross, bear the cross;
All the brighter will be the crown.
2 Bear the cross, nor ever faint or falter;
For the right be ever firm and true;
Naught can e’er His gracious purpose alter,
Who in tender love hath chosen you. [Refrain]
3 Bear the cross; the night will soon be over,
And the long expected light will come;
All the past His precious love will cover
With the joy of endless rest and home. [Refrain]
