¶Liedtext

Take up thy cross, the Saviour said, if thou wouldst my disciple be; deny thyself, the world forsake, and humbly follow after me. Take up thy cross – let not its weight fill thy weak spirit with alarm: his strength shall bear thy spirit up, and brace thy heart, and nerve thine arm. Take up thy cross, nor heed the shame, nor let thy foolish pride rebel: thy Lord for thee the Cross endured, to save thy soul from death and hell. Take up thy cross then in his strength, and calmly every danger brave; ’twill guide thee to a better home, and lead to victory o’er the grave. Take up thy cross, and follow Christ, nor think till death to lay it down; for only he who bears the cross may hope to wear the glorious crown. To thee, great Lord, the One in Three, all praise for evermore ascend: O grant us in our home to see the heavenly life that knows no end.
