Thy Cross cruciferous doth flower in all
''aAnd every cross, dear Lord, assigned to us:
Ours lowly-statured crosses; Thine how tall,
''aThy Cross cruciferous.
''aThy Cross alone life-giving, glorious:
For love of Thine, souls love their own when small,
''aEasy and light, or great and ponderous.
Since deep calls deep, Lord, hearken when we call;
''aWhen cross calls Cross racking and emulous:''"
Remember us with him who shared Thy gall,
''aThy Cross cruciferous.
