Feiert das Kreuz [English translation]

The Power of Christ compels you

The Power of Christ compels you

The Power of Christ compels you

The Power of Christ compels you

Nail reason into the people!

Let love teach you

Let yourselves convert to salvation

Let us defend ourselves against all evil

Open a path for Him

Let yourselves be freed from sin

Desist all evil

He will deliver you from the symbol of sin1

Death to sacrilege!

Open the doors

Open the gates wide

Here comes the Lord

of magnificence

Celebrate the cross!

Celebrate the cross!

Celebrate the cross!

Celebrate the cross!

Let us confess to Him

Let us call His name

Or do you all want to burn

when the angel falls?

He will come to judge us

To destroy everything beside Him

Then He will build his kingdom

in the whole world

Open the doors

Open the gates wide

Here comes the Lord

of magnificence

Celebrate the cross!

Celebrate the cross!

Celebrate the cross!

Celebrate the cross, the cross, the cross

Nail reason into the people!
