Jesus I My Cross (We the People)

Jesus, I my cross have taken
All to leave and follow You
Destitute, despised, forsaken
Starting here my all is You
Perish every fond ambition
All I've sought or hoped or known
Yet how rich is my condition
God and heaven are still my own

Let the world despise and leave me
They have left my Savior, too
Human hearts and looks deceive me
You are not, like them, untrue
And while You shall smile upon me
God of wisdom, love, and might
Foes may hate and friends may shun me
Show Your face, and all is bright

Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side
Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side

Go, then, earthly fame and treasure
Come, disaster, scorn, and pain
In Your service, pain is pleasure
With Your favor, loss is gain
I have called You Abba, Father
And my heart, oh, You shall keep
Storms may howl, and clouds may gather
All must work for good to me

Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side
Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side

We will haste from grace to glory
Armed by faith and winged by prayer
Heaven's eternal day's before me
God's own hand shall guide me there
Soon shall close the earthly mission
Swift shall pass my pilgrim days
Hope soon change to glad fruition
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise

Soon will pass my pilgrim days
Faith to sight and prayer to praise
Soon will pass my pilgrim days
Faith to sight and prayer to praise

Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side
Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side

Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side
Jesus Jesus
Help your people fight to follow
So wherever you go we'll be right by your side
