Hallelujah for the Cross!
}
The cross it standeth fast,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Defying ev'ry blast,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
The winds of hell have blown,
The world its hate hath shown,
Yet it is not overthrown,
Hallelujah for the cross!
Chorus Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah for the
cross,
Hallelujah, hallelujah, it shall never suffer los
s.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah for the cross;
Hallelujah, hallelujah, it shall never suffer los
s.
It is the old cross still,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
It's triumph let us tell,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
The grace of God here shone,
Thro' Christ the blessed Son,
Who did for sin atone,
Hallelujah for the cross!
'Twas here the debt was paid,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Our sins on Jesus laid,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
So round the cross we sing,
Of Christ our offering,
Of Christ our living King,
Hallelujah for the cross!
