Make You Own Inspirational Cross Necklace To Remind You Of...

Make You Own Inspirational Cross Necklace To Remind You Of...

 
You can fill in the blank with Christian hymns, Bible verses or anything that inspires you to make a personalized cross pendant necklace.
 
 
 
Certain cross pendants speak to you reminding you of certain scriptures, hymns or other aspects of your Christian tradition. Here is an example that speaks to me.
 
First we take the popular Christian hymn "Onward Christian Soldiers" and look at the lyrics:
 
1. Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See his banners go!
[Chorus]
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
2. At the sign of triumph
Satan's host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory.
Hell's foundations quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise.
3. Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the Saints have trod.
We are not divided;
All one body we:
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.
4. Onward, then, ye people;
Join our happy throng.
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song:
Glory, laud, and honor
Unto Christ, the King.
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing.
(Sabine Baring-Gould, Arthur S. Sullivan)
 
The pictures of silver cross pendants posted in this article remind me of this hymn. Remember this is not a general interpretation of the lyrics of the hymn but just an example of how a hymn makes me think of a certain theme of cross pendants.
 
 

To me the theme is soldierish or militaristic. These cross pendants on display speak to that theme or me. Go to the sterling silver cross pendant and see what speaks to you and how.
 
 
 

The strong sterling silver cross pendant to me its the lyrics and theme of the hymn well. Perhaps you could share an example of what type of hymn or verse relates to a certain cross pendant.
 
 
 
The silver cross pendant allows you to make personalized cross pendant necklaces that you can wear with you to remind you of your favorite part of you christian faith, hymn, verse or other Christian inspire symbol.
 
 
When you are making a cross pendant necklace you select a cross pendant or two and then go to silver chains and select the silver chains that appeal you. Now you have easily make a customized unique cross pendant necklace.
 

There is a clever trick to saving money and making your cross jewelry collection look much bigger than it is.  Select three or four silver cross pendants and two or three silver chains. Then you can swap out the cross pendants with the silver chains and it makes your collection of cross necklaces much larger than it really is and thus saving you money in the process.
