The Faith of Our Fathers

by James Gibbons

Cross—held in reverence, [3];

instrument of the crucifixion, [3];

adorns our sanctuaries, [3];

surmounts our Churches, [3];

emblem of salvation, [3].

Cross—sign of the, ancient and pious practice, [3];

how made, [3];

taught by tradition, [3];

profession of faith, [3];

salutary act of religion, [3].
