Lyrics Ricky Skaggs

Ricky Skaggs

Remember The Cross

Do you think of the cross on which Jesus died

Of the blood he shed for you

Are you prepared to meet him in that land of love

By his word are you going to abide.

Remember the cross on which Jesus died

Follow in his footsteps each day

He shed his blood for you and he shed his blood for me

Never cast that cross aside.

Never let other people lead you astray

Teach his words to them if you can

They must think of that cross on which Jesus died

And get ready to meet him someday.

Remember the cross on which Jesus died

Follow in his footsteps each day

He shed his blood for you and he shed his blood for me

Never cast that cross aside.

When Jesus comes down from heaven above

And you haven't thought of that cross

He'll cast you aside in the twinkling of an eye

And you won't see his blessed home of love.

Remember the cross on which Jesus died

Follow in his footsteps each day

He shed his blood for you and he shed his blood for me

Never cast that cross aside.
