The Cross Goes on Before

Author: W. H. R. Hymnal: His Worthy Praise #108 (1915) First Line: With the cross of Christ before to lead us Refrain First Line: He leads us ever, then falter Lyrics: 1 With the cross of Christ before to lead us, Going forth at his command, With his royal banner floating o’er us, We will soon possess the land; Tho’ the foe may oft-times press upon us, With the gospel armor shod; We will bravely march to realms of glory In the kingdom of our God. Refrain: He leads us ever, then falter never, Go tell his glory in song and story; We never weary, tho’ days be dreary, The cross of Christ goes on before. 2 We will never fear, nor doubt, nor falter, When upon the battle field, For our Captain leads the way to conquest, All to him at last must yield; We will march forever on and upward, As a solid phalanx move; Till as victors crowned with glory we assemble In the courts above. [Refrain] 3 Let us then prove earnest, loyal soldiers, In his cause the conflict brave, Trusting fully in our great Commander, Who for us his life blood gave; Let us gird our loins today for battle And go forward with the throng, Till in heav’n at last we tell his glory And his praise proclaim in song. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [With the cross of Christ before to lead]
