L. & S. No. 282 page 4 of NSOZ

1. The cross that He gave may be heavy, 

But it ne'er outweighs His grace, 

The storms that I feared may surround me, 

But it ne'er excludes His face. 

Cho. 

The cross is not greater than His grace, 

The storm cannot hide His blessed face, 

I am satisfied to know

That with Jesus here below, 

I can conquer every foe. 

1. The thorns in my path are not sharper

Than compose His crown for me, 

The cup that I drink not more bitter

Than He drank in Gethsemane. 

1. The light of His love shineth brighter

As it falls on paths of woe,

The toil of my work groweth lighter

As I stoop to raise the Low. 

1. His will I have joy in fulfilling, 

As I'm talking in His sight, 

My all to the blood I am bringing, 

It alone can keep me right.
