HALLELUJAH FOR THE CROSS
1. 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!
2. 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!
3. '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 Christ our
living King.
Hallelujah for the
cross!
