MHB 183 – IN the cross of Christ I glory

Methodist-Hymns-183

1: IN the cross of Christ I glory:
Towering o’er the wrecks of time,
All the light of sacred story
Gathers round its head sublime.

2: When the woes of life o’ertake me,
Hopes deceive, and fears annoy,
Never shall the cross forsake me:
Lo! it glows with peace and joy.

3: When the sun of bliss is beaming
Light and love upon my way:
From the cross the radiance streaming
Adds more luster to the day.

4:  Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,
By the cross are sanctified;
Peace is there that knows no measure,
Joys that through all time abide.

5: In the cross of Christ I glory:
Towering o’er the wrecks of time,
All the light of sacred story
Gathers round its head sublime.
