HAIL, HOLY CROSS OF OUR SAVIOUR

Hail, holy Cross of our Saviour,

Hail, holy Cross of Christ!

On his bleeding shoulder Jesus bore you with love.

Hail, holy Cross of our Saviour,

Sign of redemption and love.

We sing the glory, the power of your name,

Thru the Saviour's blood.

Step by step He bore you with

a heart all filled with love.

Step by step, he went to bring

healing to the world.

Drop by drop like jewels,

His own most precious blood,

Decked your naked wood for the

saving of the world.

When to the tomb you yielded

creation's priceless fruit,

The third day you shone a symbol

of his triumph over death.
