Hymn based on the Gospel:

“Take up thy cross,” the Savior said,
“If thou wouldst My disciple be;
Deny thyself, the world forsake,
And humbly follow after Me.”

Take up thy cross, let not its weight
Fill thy weak spirit with alarm;
His strength shall bear thy spirit up,
And brace thy heart and nerve thine arm.

Take up thy cross, nor heed the shame,
Nor let thy foolish pride rebel;
Thy Lord for thee the cross endured,
And saved thy soul from death and hell.

Take up thy cross then in His strength,
And calmly sin’s wild deluge brave,
’Twill guide thee to a better home,
It points to glory o’er the grave.

Take up thy cross and follow Christ,
Nor think til death to lay it down;
For only those who bear the cross
May hope to wear the glorious crown.

To Thee, great Lord, the One in Three,
All praise forevermore ascend:
O grant us in our home to see
The heavenly life that knows no end.

Words: Charles W. Ev­er­est, Vi­sions of Death, and Other Po­ems, 1833.

Music: “Germany” Sac­red Mel­o­dies, by Will­iam Gar­din­er, 1815

Lk 9:22-25
#	Douay-Rheims	Vulgate
22	Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes and be killed and the third day rise again.	dicens quia oportet Filium hominis multa pati et reprobari a senioribus et principibus sacerdotum et scribis et occidi et tertia die resurgere
23	And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.	dicebat autem ad omnes si quis vult post me venire abneget se ipsum et tollat crucem suam cotidie et sequatur me
24	For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: for he that shall lose his life for my sake shall save it.	qui enim voluerit animam suam salvam facere perdet illam nam qui perdiderit animam suam propter me salvam faciet illam
25	For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world and lose himself and cast away himself?	quid enim proficit homo si lucretur universum mundum se autem ipsum perdat et detrimentum sui faciat
