### "E'en though it be a cross"

I'm perplexed that it often takes me so long to catch on to details that are obvious to others. This happens especially with poetic language like that found in the hymns.

> Nearer my God to thee,
> Nearer to thee!
> E'en though it be a cross
> That raiseth me.

Today I was finally hit by the import of those words.
