Описание: Lift High The Cross

CRUCIFER
Sydney H. Nicholson (1875–1947) - George William Kitchin (1827–1912), revised by Michael R. Newbolt (1874–1956)

Description:
Lift High the Cross is a stirring processional hymn that calls the faithful to rally under the victorious sign of Christ’s cross. Written in the late 19th century and paired with Nicholson’s bold and stately tune, it has become one of the most beloved hymns for Easter, Holy Cross Day, and other festive occasions. The refrain—“Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim”—captures the joy of Christian mission, urging the church to bear witness to Christ’s redeeming love in all the world.

Scripture to Meditate on:
John 12:32 – “And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”

Reflection Questions:

How do I see the cross as a sign of victory in my own life, rather than defeat?

In what ways can I “lift high the cross” today, making Christ’s love visible in my words and actions?

Am I willing to follow Christ wherever He leads, even when it requires sacrifice?

How does worshiping and singing together strengthen my sense of mission as part of Christ’s body, the Church?
