The cross! it stand - eth fast, Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah!
Defying every blast, Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah!
For this glad - ness day and night, Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah!
The winds of hell have blown, The world its hate has shown,
Yet it is not overthrown, Hal - le - lu - jah! for the cross!

It is the old cross still, Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah!
Its triumph let us tell, Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah!
The grace of God here flows, The truth of God here shows,
Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah! So round the cross we sing, of Christ our Glo - rious King.

Yet 'tis not overthrown, Hal - le - lu - jah! for the cross!
Who died for sin atone, Hal - le - lu - jah! hal - le - lu - jah!
The world its hate has shown, Hal - le - lu - jah! for the cross!
