Take Up the Cross

 

"Take up the cross and follow me."
He beckons me - I clearly hear.
The risen Savior does decree-
"Take up the cross and follow me!"
He guides us to eternity,
His loving presence, always near.

"Take up the cross and follow me."
He beckons me - I clearly hear.
From sin and death, we've been set free-
"Take up the cross and follow me!"
His face in Heaven, we shall see!
He's with us now, we need not fear.

"Take up the cross and follow me!"
He beckons me - I clearly hear...

 

Mark 10:20-25..."and come, take up the cross, and follow me."

(a Triolet sonnet)
