Author: John Bowring, 1792-1872Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #264 (2003)Meter: 8.7.8.7Lyrics: 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 thro' all time abide.Scripture: John 12:32Languages: EnglishTune Title: RATHBUN
