On a hill far away
|
|
The old rugged cross
|
|
Stood an old rugged cross
|
The emblem of sufferin' and shame
|
And I love that old cross
|
Where the dearest and best
|
For world of sinner was slain
|
|
In the old rugged cross
|
Stained with blood so divine
|
A wondrous beauty I see
|
It was on that old rugged cross
|
Jesus suffered and died
|
To pardon and sanctify me
|
|
So I cherish the old rugged cross
|
Till my trophies at last I lay down
|
I will cling to the old rugged cross
|
And exchange someday for a crown.
