EN 5900 Never Further Than Thy Cross

Rev.4.10

Versi Version 1

1

Never further than Thy cross,

Never higher than Thy feet;

Here earth’s precious things seem dross,

Here earth’s bitter things grow sweet.

2

Gazing thus our sin we see,

Learn Thy love while gazing thus,

Sin, which laid the cross on Thee,

Love, which bore the cross for us.

3

Here we learn to serve and give,

And, rejoicing, self deny;

Here we gather love to live,

Here we gather faith to die.

4

Pressing onward as we can,

Still to this our hearts must tend;

Where our earliest hopes began,

There our last aspirings end.

5

Till amid the hosts of light,

We in Thee redeemed, complete,

Through Thy cross made pure and white,

Cast our crowns before Thy feet.
