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.
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.
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.
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.�
