The Old Rugged Cross

On A Hill Faraway Stood An Old Rugged Cross:
The Emblem Of Suffering And Shame:
And I Love That Old Cross
Where The Dearest And Best
For A World Of Lost Sinners Was Slain
(chorus)

So I'll Cherish The Old Rugged Cross
Till My Trophies At Last I Lay Down;
I Will Cling To The Old Rugged Cross
And Exchange It Some Day For A Crown

Oh The Old Rugged Cross,
So Despised By The World,
Has A Wondrous Attraction For me
For The Dear Lamb Of God Left his Glory
Above To Bear It To Dark Calvary
(chorus)

In The Old Rugged Cross,
Stained With Blood So Divine
A Wondrous Beauty I See
For 'twas On That Old Cross, Jesus Suffered
And Died, To Pardon And Sanctify Me
(chorus)
