Full Lyrics

1. Lift high the cross, the love of Christ pro- claim, Till all the world a- dore His sac- red Name. Come, breth- ren, fol- low where our Cap- tain trod, our King vic- tor- ious, Christ the Son of God.

2. Led on their way by this tri- um- phant sign, The hosts of God in con- quering ranks com- bine.

3. Each new- born ser- vant of the Cru- ci- fied Bears on the brow the seal of Him Who died.

4. This is the sign which Sa- tan's le- gions fear and an- gels veil their fa- ces to re- vere.

5. Saved by this Cross where- on their Lord was slain, the sons of A- dam their lost home re- gain.
