For the Cause

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

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

Christ we proclaim

The Name above every name

For all creation, ev'ry nation

God's salvation through the Son

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

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

Christ we proclaim

The Name above every name

For all creation, ev'ry nation

God's salvation through the Son

Christ we proclaim

The Name above every name

For all creation, ev'ry nation

God's salvation through the Son
