Lift High the Cross

AO Hymn - OCTOBER 2025 LIFT HIGH THE CROSS Lyrics George Kitchin and Michael Newbolt 1916; Tune: "Crucifer" by Sydney Nicholson 1916 Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, Till all the world adore His sacred name. Led on their way by this triumphant sign, The hosts of God in conquering ranks combine. Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, Till all the world adore His sacred name. Each newborn servant of the Crucified Bears on the brow the seal of Him who died. Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, Till all the world adore His sacred name. O Lord, once lifted on the glorious tree, As Thou hast promised, draw the world to Thee. Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, Till all the world adore His sacred name. So shall our song of triumph ever be: Praise to the Crucified for victory. Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, Till all the world adore His sacred name. ----- Blessings as you sing!
