Original text and translations
English text
- 1.
- In the cross of Christ I glory,
- Towering o’er the wrecks of time;
- All the light of sacred story
- Gathers round its head sublime.
- 2.
- When the woes of life o’ertake me,
- Hopes deceive, and fears annoy,
- Never shall the cross forsake me,
- Lo! it glows with peace and joy.
- 3.
- When the sun of bliss is beaming
- Light and love upon my way,
- From the cross the radiance streaming
- Adds more luster to the day.
- 4.
- Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,
- By the cross are sanctified;
- Peace is there that knows no measure,
- Joys that through all time abide.
- 5.
- In the cross of Christ I glory,
- Towering o’er the wrecks of time;
- All the light of sacred story
- Gathers round its head sublime.
Lyrics: John Bowring, Hymns by John Bowring, 1825.
