Author: Thomas Shepherd Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #295 (1976) First Line: Must Jesus bear the cross alone Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone,And all the world go free?No, there's a cross for ev'ry one,And there's a cross for me.2 The consecrated cross I'll bear,Till death shall set me free,And then go home my crown to wear,For there's a crown for me.3 Upon the crystal pavement, downAt Jesus pierced feet,Joyful, I'll cast my golden crown,And His dear name repeat.4 Oh! precious cross! Oh! glorious crown!Oh! resurrection day!Ye angels, from the stars come down,And bear my soul away. Topics: The Christian Life Praise; Cross; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
