The Cross That He Gave

Hymnal: Christ in Song #494 (1908) First Line: The cross that he gave may be heavy Refrain First Line: The cross is not greater than His grace Lyrics: 1 The cross that he gave may be heavy, But it ne'er outweighs His grace; The storm that I fear may surround me, But it ne'er excludes His face. Chorus: The cross is not greater than His grace, The storm cannot hide His blessed face; I am satisfied to know That with Jesus here below, I can conquer ev'ry foe. 2 The thorns in my path are not sharper Than composed his crown for me; The cup that I drink not more bitter Than he drank in Gethsemane. [Chorus] 3 The light of his love shineth brighter, As it falls on paths of woe; The toil of my work groweth lighter, As I stoop to raise the low. [Chorus] 4 His will I have joy in fulfilling, As I'm walking in his sight; My all to the blood I am bringing, It alone can keep me right.

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: W. J. K. Arranger of "[The cross that He gave may be heavy]" in Favorites Number 4 William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman

F. E. Belden

1858 - 1945 Person Name: F. E. B. Arranger of "[The cross that he gave may be heavy]" in Christ in Song Belden was born in Battle Creek, Michigan in 1858. He began writing music in his late teenage years after moving to California with his family. For health reasons he later moved to Colorado. He returned to Battle Creek with his wife in the early 1880s, and there he became involved in Adventist Church publishing. F. E. Belden wrote many hymn tunes, gospel songs, and related texts in the early years of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Belden was able to rapidly write both music and poetry together which enabled him to write a song to fit a sermon while it was still being delivered. He also wrote songs for evang­el­ist Bil­ly Sun­day. Though Belden’s later years were marred by misunderstandings with the church leadership over his royalties, he did donate his papers and manuscripts to the church’s seminary at his death. He died on December 2, 1945 in Battle Creek, Michigan. N.N., Hymnary. Source: http://www.hymntime.com/tch/bio/b/e/l/belden_fe.htm
