Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone { Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone? by Thomas Shepherd Mt 16:24 FAITH-Rev. John Bacchus Dykes MAITLAND-George N. Allen Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone? } Must Jesus bear the cross alone, And all the world go free? No, there's a cross for ev'ry one, And there's a cross for me. The consecrated cross I'll bear Till He shall set me free, And then go home my crown to wear, For there's a crown for me. O precious cross! O glorious crown! O resurrection day! Ye angels from the stars, come down And bear my soul away.
