For the cause of Christ the King
We give our lives, an offering
'Til all the earth resounds with
ceaseless praise To the Son.
Verse: 2
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, Every nation,
God's salvation Through the Son!
Verse: 3
For the King once lifted high
To cries of rage, of 'Crucify!'
Endured the cross as every
sin was laid, On the Son.
Verse: 4
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, Every nation,
God's salvation Through the Son!
Verse: 5
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, Every nation,
God's salvation Through the Son!
