10. Look away from the cross to the glittering crown, from your cares weary one, look away. There’s a home for the soul where no sorrow can come and pleasures will never decay. Tho’ the burdens of life may be heavy to bear and your crosses and trials severe; there’s a beautiful hand that is beckoning come, And no heartaches or sighings are there. Mid the conflicts, the battles, the struggles and strife, bravely onward your journey pursue; Look away from the cross to the glittering crown that’s awaiting in heaven for you.”
