Hymn 449 HALLELUJAH FOR THE CROSS Lyrics

1. The cross it standeth fast, Hallelujah!
Defying every blast, Hallelujah, hallelujah!
The winds of hell have blown, the world its hate hath shown,
Yet it is not overthrown,
Hallelujah for the cross!
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Chorus:
Hallelujah, hallelujah for the cross!
Hallelujah, hallelujah for the cross,
Hallelujah Hallelujah, it shall never suffer loss!
Hallelujah It shall never suffer loss!
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Hallelujah for the cross!
Hallelujah hallelujah It shall never suffer, never suffer loss!

2. It is the old cross still,
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Its triumph let us tell,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
The grace of God here shone thro’ Christ the blessed Son,
Who did for sin atone, Hallelujah for the cross!

3. “Twas here the debt was paid,
Hallelujah, hallelujah! Our sins on Jesus laid,
Hallelujah, hallelujah! So round the cross we sing
of Christ our offering. Of Christ our living King.
Hallelujah for the cross.
