| Author: | R. L. |
| Tune: | [“Take up thy cross and follow Me”] |
| Composer: | Rev. Robert Lowry |
1 “Take up thy cross and follow Me,”
O hear the blessed Saviour say;
If thou wouldst His disciple be,
Take up thy cross today.
Refrain:
Take up thy cross today,
Take up thy cross today;
O hear thy Lord, and trust His word;
Take up thy cross today.
2 Let not the world thy soul destroy,
When Jesus shows the better way;
O now believe Him, and with joy
Take up thy cross today. [Refrain]
3 Behold th’accepted time is now;
O flee the danger of delay;
Eternal life is thine if thou
Take up thy cross today. [Refrain]
