I’ve Passed the Cross

lyricist: Philip Bliss (1838–1876)
Composer: James McGranahan (1840–1907)

Look un­to Me and be ye saved

I heard the Just One say;

And as by faith on Him I gazed

My bur­den rolled away.

I’ve passed the cross at Cal­va­ry

I’m on the Heav­en side;

The world is cru­ci­fied to me

Since Christ my ran­som died;

The world is cru­ci­fied to me

Since Christ my ran­som died.

By His atone­ment re­con­ciled

My Fa­ther’s face I see;

The emp­ty tomb now in­ter­venes

Between the world and me.

Oh

glo­ri­ous height of van­tage ground!

Oh

blest vic­tor­ious hour!

In Him to trust and ful­ly know

His re­sur­rect­ion pow­er.
