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値l 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.
O 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値l 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.
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.
So I値l 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.
To the old rugged cross
I will every be true,
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He値l call me someday
to my home far away
Where His glory forever I値l share.
So I値l 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.
