“Champion of Love” is a timeless classic Southern Gospel Song. It was written by Phil Cross and made popular by the legendary Cathedrals. Gerald Wolfe’s lead vocals propelled "Champion of Love" to the top of the Southern Gospel Music charts.
This classic Southern Gospel song has been sung by many groups over the years. One of my favorite versions
of the song is by The Crabb Family on their “Blur the Lines” CD. The song has been sung in many languages and you can watch a young quartet sing the song in Spanish near the bottom of this page.
“Champion of Love” is one of those songs that has stood the test of time. The lyrics are as powerful today as the day that they were first sung. The message still touches hearts for Christ.
Lyrics To "Champion of Love"
Champion Of Love by Phil Cross Made popular by The Cathedrals
Ladies and Gentlemen May I have your attention I want to introduce to you In this corner Of the Good and the Right Stands a Champion robed in white His height exceeds the heavens His weight out weighs the world
His reach reaches everywhere His age is evermore
Chorus He is higher than the highest Greater than the great No one will ever take Hid crown away He’s more mighty than the mightiest He reigns from above He’s the all-time, undisputed, undefeated, champion of love
He left His home town To enter this arena To raise His hands in victory for me An angry crowd crucified This King Who wore their crown And they gladly watched the Champion going down But I will never count Him out For I’m a witness of The day He rose to retain the title Champion of love
Chorus twice
He’s the all-time, undisputed, undefeated, champion of love He’s the all-time, undisputed, undefeated, champion of love He’s the all-time, undisputed, undefeated, champion of love

I found these videos on You Tube and thought that they were interesting. Anything by the Cathedrals is worth watching. The Spanish version is unique as well.
