Lyrics:

Lift up the cross.
Carry the light of the Gospel.
Always proclaim God's holy,
unchangeable Word.
Weep for the lost.
Pray they will heed to the Spirit's call.
Preach to all men
until ev'ry ear has heard.

Lift up the cross.
Share the good news of salvation.
Multitudes long to know
there is hope for their souls.
Give of your best,
fervently seeking the Kingdom.
Over all else, know Christ,
and make Him known.

Lift up the cross high above
the clouds of deception,
doubt and confusion.
Tell the world God so loved,
He gave us His Son.
He gave us His Son.

Lift up the cross.
Scorners and skeptics are watching.
Don't beafraid.
There's power in Jesus' name.
Stand for the faith,
having no need for apology.
Speak forth the truth,
boldly and unashamed.

Lift up the cross high above
the clouds of deception,
doubt and confusion.
Tell the world God so loved,
He gave us His Son.
He gave us His Son.

Lift up the cross.
There is no greater honor
than to obey the call,
no matter the cost.
Lay down Your life,
fully devoted to serve the Lord.
Live all the rest of your days
to lift up the cross!

Lift up the cross! Lift Him up!
Let them see Jesus.
Lift up the cross!
Stand for the Gospel.
Lift up the cross! Lift Him up!
Let them see Jesus.
Lift up the cross!
Stand for the Gospel.
Lift up the cross!
