How can l make a lesser sacrifice, when Jesus gave His all. So we too are called, to take up our cross & follow Him. He shows us the way, by being THE WAY, The Truth & The Life. Thank you for playing one of my 'ol time favorites.
I woke up this morning and after many years this beautiful song came in my spirit,googled it and was so happy to find it. Will share with others and hope someone will be blessed by it.
I remembered my mama and daddy singing this song in church when I was a little girl. It bless my soul then and hearing it again bless me with many tears both happy and sad. Thank you so much for singing to my soul. Bless you! Pamie sawyers
I grew up with these songs when missionaries visited our Indian village. I makes me so nostalgic. The words are just a reminder of what my salvation costs. Thank you Jesus. 🙏🏽
My eyes are filled with tears, this song, Take up thy cross, I learned was on of my fathers favorite songs, a friend of mine & I sang it at dads funeral, I guess you never know how how your message will impact someone, well, you found that “someone” blessings be bestowed upon you! You have a beautiful voice, please continue using it for our Lord!!!
I went to my bed last night and vision singing this song take up the cross and fallow me . I went searching for it on TH-cam and here it is. Thanks be to God..
Praise God. This song takes me back to 45 years ago when I became a Christian in High School. I love hymns and I’m sad that many churches are not singing hymns. I have to admit it was not long and I am so happy you sang every verse. I went to bed last night listening to this song. I was blessed; continue singing for the Lord. To God be the glory
Thank you very much, Martha! This is a very precious song. I learned it from my mother. She went to heaven last Sept.at 94. I went through TH-cam hoping to find the most faithful to Rev. Ackley's composition. I think you're the 5th I listened to. And my Mama's memories came back again. Yes, you were right in singing all the verses. I do appreciate it. By the way, I just subscribed to your channel. God bless your ministry!
This song was given to me by the Holy Spirit. Reminding me of my purpose and duty as a child of God. I pray that it will encourage you to do the same, just keep in mind that Jesus Christ is walking right beside you.
1. I walked one day along a country road, And there a Stranger journeyed, too. Bent low beneath the burden of His load: It was a cross, a cross I knew. (Refrain) "Take up thy cross and follow Me," I hear the Blessed Saviour call; How can I make a lesser sacrifice, When JESUS gave His all? 2. I cried, "Lord JESUS," and He spoke my name; I saw His hands all bruised and torn; I stooped to kiss away the marks of shame, The shame for me that He had bourne. 3. "Oh, let me bear Thy Cross, Dear Lord," I cried, And, lo, a cross for me appeared, The one, forgotten, I had cast aside, The one, so long, that I had feared. 4. My cross I'll carry till the crown appears. The way I journey soon will end. Where GOD Himself shall wipe away all tears, And friend hold fellowship with friend.
I Love the song take up your cross and follow me

Beautiful Song of my childhood that my Dear Mother taught me. She’s gone to be with Jesus November 2020. 🙏🏽✝️
It's a blessing hearing this song was one of my favorites over 30 years ago thank you Lord Jesus.
When they humiliated me and denied me a chance to serve where i loved most.. the spirit of God gave me this song.

Its as if you are singing directly to my heart!
1. I walked one day along a country road,
And there a Stranger journeyed, too.
Bent low beneath the burden of His load:
It was a cross, a cross I knew.
(Refrain)
"Take up thy cross and follow Me,"
I hear the Blessed Saviour call;
How can I make a lesser sacrifice,
When JESUS gave His all?
2. I cried, "Lord JESUS," and He spoke my name;
I saw His hands all bruised and torn;
I stooped to kiss away the marks of shame,
The shame for me that He had bourne.
3. "Oh, let me bear Thy Cross, Dear Lord," I cried,
And, lo, a cross for me appeared,
The one, forgotten, I had cast aside,
The one, so long, that I had feared.
4. My cross I'll carry till the crown appears.
The way I journey soon will end.
Where GOD Himself shall wipe away all tears,
And friend hold fellowship with friend.
