O Cross, Our Only Trophy

Words: Robert Loretz
Music: Traditional (Adoro Te Devote)
This familiar tune makes this hymn very accessible for Parish singing. It is especially appropriate for the feast of the "Triumph of the Cross", (August 14), but can be used any time to recall Christ's victory of love upon the holy cross.
