Song Lyrics

For the cause of Christ the King
We give our lives, an offering
’Til all the earth resounds
With ceaseless praise
To the Son
For the cause of Christ we go
With joy to reap, with faith to sow
As many see
And many put their trust in the Son
CHORUS
Christ we proclaim,
The Name above every name:
For all creation,
Ev’ry nation,
God’s salvation
Through the Son!
For the King once lifted high
To cries of rage, of ‘crucify!’
Endured the cross
As every sin was laid
On the Son
To the King who conquered death
To free the poor and the oppressed
For lasting peace
For life and liberty
In the Son
CHORUS
Let it be my life’s refrain:
To live is Christ, to die is gain;
Deny myself, take up my cross
And follow the Son
CHORUS
