Author: G. N. Allen, 1812-1877 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #280 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone,
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for every one,
And there's a cross for me.
2 How happy are the saints above,
Who once were sorrowing here!
But now they taste unmingled love
And joy without a tear.
3 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.
Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
