1 Take the cross and follow Jesus,
Trust, brother, trust;
Never doubt His pow’r to keep us,
Trust, brother, trust.
Refrain:
Lift the blood-stained cross of Jesus,
Trust, brother, trust;
Clasp it tighter, hope is brighter,
Trust, brother, trust.
2 Take the cross, live true and holy,
Trust, brother, trust;
Self-denying, meek and lowly,
Trust, brother, trust. [Refrain]
3 Take the cross and crown of glory,
Trust, brother, trust;
Banish all its foes before thee,
Trust, brother, trust. [Refrain]
4 Laugh at trouble, fear no danger,
Trust, brother, trust;
Be courageous, you will conquer,
Trust, brother, trust. [Refrain]
