Shout out his name!Lift it up high, to the sky, carry the cross.Lift it up high, to the sky, carry the cross.His cross redeems and ours is the wayWe drown the desires of our flesh every day.Our cross is the mark that says we’re his own.The path of our cross is leading us home.Speaking the truth isn’t easy to do.He brought a sword- but he gives peace to you.Why gain the world and forfeit your soul?Carry the cross though it may be a lonely road.(Chorus)He’ll lift you up though your spirit is broken,Help you believe, help you keep hopin’.This life is short, and soon comes the dayHeavenly wings will fly you away.(Chorus) Copyright © 2010 Chris Driesbach   Download this song or the entire album atwww.chrisdriesbach.com/musicPurchase the physical On the Road for Jesus CD at www.nph.net   Note that this also song appeared on Chris’s CD, Jesus Is The Man!
