Lift High The Cross
Lift high the cross,
the love of Christ proclaim,
This is the sign which Satan's legions fear
And angels veil their faces to revere.
Refrain
Till all the world
adore His sacred Name.
Led on their way by this triumphant sign,
The hosts of God in conquering ranks combine.
Refrain
Each newborn servant of the Crucified
Bears on the brow the seal of Him Who died.
Refrain
O Lord, once lifted on the glorious tree,
As Thou hast promised, draw the world to Thee.
Refrain
This is the sign which Satan's legions fear
And angels veil their faces to revere.
Refrain
So shall our song of triumph ever be:
Praise to the Crucified for victory.
Refrain
