Before the Cross of Jesus

Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard, 1876-1968 Hymnal: Hymns for a Pilgrim People #189 (2007) Meter: 7.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Before the cross of Jesus Our lives are judged today; The meaning of our eager strife Is tested by His Way. Across our restless living The light streams from His cross, And by its clear, revealing beams We measure gain and loss. 2 The hopes that lead us onward, The fears that hold us back, Our will to dare great things for God, The courage that we lack, The faith we keep in goodness, Our love, as low or pure - On all, the judgment of the cross Falls steady, clear, and sure. 3 Yet humbly, in our striving, O God, we face its test. We crave the pow'r to do Thy will With Him who did it best. On us let now the healing Of His great Spirit fall, And make us brave and full of joy To answer to His call.

Clephane Hymnal: The Hymnbook #190 (1955) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand— The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noontide heat, And the burden of the day. 2 Upon the cross of Jesus Mine eye at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me: And from my stricken heart with tears Two wonders I confess— The wonders of redeeming love And my unworthiness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place: I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss: My sinful self my only shame, My glory all, the cross.
