Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken
Author: Rev. Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #440 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken,
All to leave, and follow Thee;
Destitute, despised, forsaken,
Thou, from hence, my all shalt be.
Perish every fond ambition,
All I've sought and hoped and known;
Yet how rich is my condition:
God and heaven are still my own.
2 Let the world despise and leave me,
They have left my Savior, too;
Human hearts and looks deceive me;
Thou art not, like man, untrue;
And, while Thou shalt smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
Foes may hate, and friends may shun me;
Show Thy face, and all is bright.
3 Man may trouble and distress me,
'Twill but drive me to Thy breast;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heaven will bring me sweeter rest.
O 'tis not in grief to harm me,
While Thy love is left to me;
O 'twere not in joy to charm me,
Were that joy unmixed with Thee.
4 Haste, then, on from grace to glory,
Armed by faith, and winged by prayer;
Heaven's eternal day's before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there.
Soon shall close thy earthly mission;
Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days;
Hope shall change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Languages: English Tune Title: GREENVILLE
Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken
Jesus Calls Us; O'er the Tumult
Author: Mrs. Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #443 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us; over the tumult
Of our life's wild, restless sea,
Day by day His sweet voice soundeth,
Saying, "Christian, follow Me."
2 As, of old, apostles heard it
By the Galilean lake,
Turned from home and toil and kindred,
Leaving all for His dear sake.
3 In our joys and in our sorrows,
Days of toil and hours of ease,
Still He calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love Me more than these."
4 Jesus calls us; by Thy mercies,
Savior, may we hear Thy call,
Give our hearts to Thy obedience,
Serve and love Thee best of all. Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE (JUDE)

Jesus, I my cross have taken
Author: Henry Francis Lyte Hymnal: Church Book #444 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Topics: The Christian Life Following Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken,
All to leave and follow Thee;
Destitute, despised, forsaken,
Thou, from hence, my All shalt be.
Perish every fond ambition,
All I've sought, or hoped, or known;
Yet how rich is my condition!
God and heaven are still my own.
2 Man may trouble and distress me,
'Twill but drive me to Thy breast;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heaven will bring me sweeter rest.
O, 'tis not in grief to harm me,
While Thy Love is left to me;
O, 'twere not in joy to charm me,
Were that joy unmixed with Thee.
3 Take, my soul, thy full salvation;
Rise o'er sin, and fear, and care;
Joy to find in every station
Something still to do or bear.
Think what Spirit dwells within thee:
What a Father's smile is thine;
What a Saviour died to win thee:
Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine?
4 Haste thee on from grace to glory,
Armed by faith and winged by prayer;
Heaven's eternal days before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there.
Soon shall close thy earthly mission,
Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days;
Hope shall change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Languages: English Tune Title: WELT ADE, ICH BEN DEIN MÜDE

O Thou, to whose all-searching sight
Author: Nicholas Louis, Count Zinzendorf; John Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #449 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Life Following Christ Lyrics: 1 O Thou, to whose all-searching sight
The darkness shineth as the light!
Search, prove my heart: it pants for Thee:
O burst these bonds, and set it free.
2 Wash out its stains, refine its dross;
Nail my affections to the Cross!
Hallow each thought; let all within
Be clean, as Thou, my Lord, art clean.
3 If in this darksome wild I stray,
Be thou my Light, be Thou my Way;
No foes, no violence I fear,
No fraud, while Thou, my God, art near.
4 When rising floods my soul o'erflow,
When sinks my heart in waves of woe,
Jesus, thy timely aid impart,
And raise my head, and cheer my heart.
5 Saviour, where'er Thy steps I see,
Dauntless, untired, I'd follow Thee:
O let Thy hand support me still,
And lead me to Thy holy hill!
6 If rough and thorny be the way,
My strength proportion to my day;
Till toil and grief and pain shall cease,
Where all is calm, and joy and peace. Languages: English Tune Title: ANDERNACH

Am I a Soldier of the Cross?
Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #450 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Following Christ First Line: Am I a soldier of the cross Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the Lamb,
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His Name?
2 Must I be carried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed through blood seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
4 Sure I must fight if I would reign,
Increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy Word. Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON

O Jesus, crucified for man
Author: W. W. How Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #475 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, crucified for man,
O Lamb, all glorious on Thy throne,
Teach Thou our wondering souls to scan
The mystery of Thy love unknown.
2 We pray Thee, grant us strength to take
Our daily cross, whate’er it be,
And gladly for Thine own dear sake
In paths of pain to follow Thee.
3 As on our daily way we go,
Through light or shade, in calm or strife,
O may we bear Thy marks below
In conquered sin and chastened life.
4 And week by week this day we ask
That holy memories of Thy cross
May sanctify each common task,
And turn to gain each earthly loss.
5 Grant us, dear Lord, our cross to bear,
Till at Thy feet we lay it down,
Win through Thy blood our pardon there,
And through the cross attain the crown. Tune Title: [O Jesus, crucified for man]
O Jesus, crucified for man
