The cross it standeth fast

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!

Hallelujah

hallelujah

Hallelujah for the cross;

Hallelujah

hallelujah

It shall never suffer loss.

It is the old cross still

Hallelujah! hallelujah!

Its triumph let us tell

Hallelujah! hallelujah!

The grace of God here shone

Through Christ the blessed Son

Who hath redemption won

Hallelujah for the cross!

’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!
