O cross of Christ, immortal tree

Author: Stanbrook Abbey Hymnal: Common Praise #115 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O cross of Christ, immortal tree on which our Saviour died, the world is sheltered by your arms that bore the crucified. 2 From bitter death and barren wood the tree of life is made; its branches bear unfailing fruit and leaves that never fade. 3 O faithful cross, you stand unmoved while ages run their course: foundation of the universe, creation's binding force. 4 Give glory to the risen Christ and to his cross give praise, the sign of God's unfathomed love, the hope of all our days.
