On a cross uplifted highYou were raised, O Christ, to die;Draw us, Savior, there to seeOur salvation, full and free.Foolish, to the worldly-wise,Is the cross before our eyes,But for us by faith it shines,God's great wisdom, pow'r divine. In this sign You meet us, Lord,At the font, with water poured,When Your holy cross is marked,On each forehead, on each heart.Daily, that imprinted signSo conforms the heart and mindTo the Pattern from above, from above,Image of God's perfect love. Send us out, Lord, undeterred,Make us doers of Your Word,Gladly taking up the cross,Finding gain in ev'ry loss.When we faint with doubt or fear,May Your cross to us appear.Sign of vict'ry, glorious sight,Source of hope and guiding light.
