Hallelujah for the Cross

The cross it standeth fast,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Defying every blast,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
The winds of hell have blown,
The world its hate hath shown,
Yet it is not overthrown,
Hallelujah for the cross!

Refrain

Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah for the cross!
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
It shall never suffer loss!
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
Hallelujah for the cross!
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
It shall never suffer loss!

It is the old cross still,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Its 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!

Refrain

“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 Chrsit our living King.
Hallelujah for the cross!
