Cross of Red
on a field of white

There's a flag that flies o'er the world tonight,
Ev'rywhere unfurled,
Out of darkness it sheds a light
Over all the world.

Cross of Red on a field of white,
Fly unfurled o'er the world tonight
Red of the cross tells of grief and pain,
White of the joy that the world shall gain.
Millions toil just to aid mankind,
Led by the Saviour who healed the blind,
Angels of love clad in robes so bright
Serve a Cross of Red on a field of white.

Taking cheer and comfort to ev'ry place
Where there may be need,
Aid and serve all the human race
That's the Red Cross creed.

Cross of Red on a field of white,
Fly unfurled o'er the world tonight
Red of the cross tells of grief and pain,
White of the joy that the world shall gain.
Millions toil just to aid mankind,
Led by the Saviour who healed the blind,
Angels of love clad in robes so bright
Serve a Cross of Red on a field of white.

There's a task of service for ev'ryone,
Toil for hand and heart,
works of mercy that must be done,
Come and play your part.

Cross of Red on a field of white,
Fly unfurled o'er the world tonight
Red of the cross tells of grief and pain,
White of the joy that the world shall gain.
Millions toil just to aid mankind,
Led by the Saviour who healed the blind,
Angels of love clad in robes so bright
Serve a Cross of Red on a field of white.
