Bear the Cross for Jesus

Verse 1

Bear the cross for Jesus, Bear it every day; Tho’ the path be rugged, Bear it all the way; Bear the cross for Jesus, Whatsoe’er it be; Bear it, and remember All His love for thee.

Chorus

Bear the cross, bear the cross, Bear it ev’ry day; Bear the cross for Jesus, Bear it all the way.

Verse 2

Bear the cross for Jesus, Bear it through the strife; On through storm or sunshine, Up the hill of life; Bear the cross for patience, Tho’ you sigh for rest; Just the one He giveth Is for you the best.

Verse 3

Bear the cross for Jesus, Would you know the power Of His grace to keep you, Keep you every hour? Bear the cross for Jesus, Never mind its weight; We shall leave our burden At His palace gate.
