Take Up Your Cross

Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Hymnal: RitualSong (2nd ed.) #890 (2016) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Take up your cross, the Savior said Lyrics: 1 "Take up your cross," the Savior said, "If you would my disciple be; Take up your cross with willing heart, And humbly follow after me." 2 Take up your cross: let not its weight Fill your weak spirit with alarm; His strength shall bear your spirit up, And brace your heart and nerve your arm. 3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame, And let your foolish heart be still; The Lord for you accepted death Upon a cross on Calv'ry's hill. 4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength, And calmly ev'ry danger brave: It guides you to a better home And leads to vict'ry o'er the grave. 5 Take up your cross and follow Christ, Nor think till death to lay it down; For those who humbly bear the cross One day will wear the glorious crown.
