Hymns - Stand by the Cross - Текст песни

1. Stand by the cross when the morning sun
 Beams on your way so bright;
 Stand by the cross when the shadows fall,
 Soon we will triumph for God and right.
 * Refrain:
 Stand by the cross, soldier, stand,
 Vict'ry will come by and by;
 Stand by the cross, soldier, stand,
 And we'll conquer though we die.
 2. Stand by the cross till the day is done,
 Firm to the end and true;
 Trust when the battle is raging wild,
 For there is waiting a crown for you.
 3. Stand by the cross like a soldier strong,
 Fearlessly face the foe;
 Soon shall the army of night recede,
 Back from the morning's triumphant glow.
 4. Stand by the cross till the Lord returns,
 Faithful through life's last test;
 Soon we shall hear from His blessed lips,
 ?Lay down thy armor and be at rest.?
