Must Jesus bear the cross alone
And all the world go free?
No, there's a cross for ev'ryone,
And there's a cross for me.
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.
Upon the crystal pavement,
down At Jesus' pierced feet,
With joy I'll cast my golden crown
And His dear name repeat.
O precious cross!
O glorious crown!
O resurrection day!
Ye angels, from the stars come down
It rhymes so prettily. Why don't people write songs like this nowadays?
