From Cross To Crown

Author: Mrs. Ellen Patton Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: I will flee a wounded dove Lyrics: 1 I will flee a wounded dove To the mountain of God’s love; Hide me in the clefted rock, From the world’s wild tempest shock; Seal me, Christ, Thy very own, Anchor me fast to the throne. 2 Shown myself, I fled away, Out of night into the day; Show my Lord, I now desire Heart and brain be set on fire, Just to do my Master’s will— When death comes, to praise Him still. 3 I am weak, but Thou art strong; Bear me through the passing throng Of life’s cares and bitter grief; Let me ever find relief Looking to the height sublime, Just beyond the shores of time. 4 Drop into my life sweet trust, Write my name among the just; Make me yours in heart, my King, And Thy praises I will sing; While supplies of grace come down, Guiding me from cross to crown. Used With Tune: SASKATCHEWAN Text Sources: Chiming Voices by James H. Rosecrans and J. T. Toof (New York: Asa Hull, 1893)
