Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone

I am a song person. I love the old hymns. They have so much meaning and really speak to the soul. This old one has been on my heart all day.


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 
And bear my soul away.

  1. It rhymes so prettily. Why don't people write songs like this nowadays?
