"Take Up Your Cross," the Savior Said
Author: Charles W. Everest, 1814-1877 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 296 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 Lyrics: 1 “Take up your cross,” the Savior said,
“if you would my disciple be;
deny yourself, the world forsake,
and humbly follow after me.”
2 Take up your cross, let not its weight
fill your weak spirit with alarm;
his strength shall bear your spirit up,
and nerve your heart, and brace your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
nor let your foolish pride rebel;
your Lord for you the cross endured,
and fought the powers of death and hell.
4 Take up your cross, and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down;
for only they who bear the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown. Used With Tune: DISTRESS

God Whose Love is Always Stronger
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:8-9 First Line: God whose love is always stronger Than our weakness, pride and fear Lyrics: God whose love is always stronger Than our weakness, pride and fear,
In your world, we pray and wonder How to be more faithful here.
Hate too often grows inside us; Fear rules what the nations do.
So we pray, when wars divide us: Give us love, Lord! Make us new!
Love is patient, kind and caring, Never arrogant or rude,
Never boastful, all things bearing; Love rejoices in the truth.
When we’re caught up in believing War will make the terror cease,
Show us Jesus’ way of living; May our strength be in your peace.
May our faith in you be nourished; May your churches hear your call.
May our lives be filled with courage As we speak your love for all.
Now emboldened by your Spirit Who has given us new birth,
Give us love, that we may share it Till your love renews the earth. Topics: Justice; Peacemaking Used With Tune: BEACH SPRING
