In the Cross of Christ I Glory Words by John Bowring Music by Ithamar Conkey Words and Music public domain 247
In the cross of Christ I gloryTow’ring o’er the wrecks of time
When the woes of life o’ertake meHopes deceive and fears annoy
Never shall the cross forsake meLo! it glows with peace and joy
From the crossthe radiance streamingAdds new luster to the day
Bane and blessing, pain and pleasureBy the cross are sanctified
Peace is therethat knows no measureJoys that thro’ all time abide
