The cross experienced the self will crucify.
All enemies are slain!
Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,
That wondrous dream was given,
That wondrous dream was given,

By the cross

Put the soul to death alway;
Though cruel it may seem, it is a grand release.
This banner, joyfully—
Peace is there that knows no measure,
A ladder up to heaven.
A ladder up to heaven.
