The Cross Is Not Greater

We sang an old hymn in church yesterday that we've sang thousands of times before but it spoke to my heart like never before. "The Cross Is Not Greater" written by Ballington Booth a very long time ago. Here are the words to the first verse and the chorus. If you know it sing it and be inspired.

The cross that He gave may be heavy,
But it ne're outweighs His grace.
The storm that I feared may surround me,
But it ne're excludes His face.

The cross is not greater than His grace,
The storm cannot hide His blessed face;
I am satisfied to know
That with Jesus here below,
I can conquer every foe.

I was especially inspired with the last phrase: That with Jesus here below, I can conquer EVERY foe. What a wonderful encouragement.
