To the world and self and sin;
To the death-born life of Jesus
I am sweetly ent'ring in:
In His fellowship of suff'ring,
To His death conformed to be,
I am going with my Savior
All the way to Calvary.
Where my Savior went for me,
Help me, Lord, to go with Thee,
All the way to Calvary.
When His risen life we know;
'Tis not hard to share His suff'rings
When our hearts with joy o'erflow.
In His resurrection power
He has come to dwell in me,
And my heart is gladly going
All the way to Calvary.
If we suffer we shall reign;
Only thus the prize of glory
Can the conqueror attain.
Oh, how sweet, on that glad morning
Should the Master say to thee,
"Yes, my child, thou didst go with me
All the way to Calvary."

Lord Jesus, do crucify us daily and continually... Make us willing to crucify our "self" on the cross! Lord, our way of the cross begins in our baptism! This is our first step on the way of the cross! Lord, make us live by dying! Lord Jesus...

Wonderful hymn! I translate some of these hymns in my church in San Salvador, El Salvador and sing them every Sunday, very happy and rejoicing in the Lord.

'Tis not hard to die with Christ
When His risen life we know;
The Lord died on the cross so that His life can be released. We have been empowered by His life. When we know His resurrection, it is not hard to deny the self and bear the cross.
