Old Rugged Cross

On a hill far away 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

So I'll cherish the old rugged cross

Till my trophies at last at, last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange it someday for a crown

Oh, that 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

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 someday for a crown

On a hill far away 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
