The way of the Cross means sacrifice,
As to God you
yield your all.
To be laid on the altar,
the place of
death Where fire will surely fall.
Refrain
¡¥Tis the way of the Cross,
Are you willing
for this?
What does bearing the Cross mean to you?
You
who¡¦ve given yourself,
Your all to God,
To God are you
wholly true?
As the voice of song and prayer we raise
How easy to say
¡§we give all;¡¨
Till some rougher cross lies just before
And sterner is duty¡¦s call.
Refrain
Do you falter then or true to death
Just die on the cross
in the way,
Till the fullness of life from the Loving One
Is filling you day by day?
Refrain
¡¥Tis the plan of life, for you die to live,
One with Jesus
crucified;
With the life alone to be lived thro¡¦ you,
Of
the risen, the glorified.
Refrain
Look not at your gains or at your loss
But take heed to
the will of God.
Let us look upon all things as worthless
dross,
The steps of the Lord to follow.
Refrain
