The Old Rugged Cross Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
'Til my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown
[Verse 2]
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]
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
Ooh, yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Yes, 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
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
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
'Til 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’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
Ooh, yeah
Yes, 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
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown
Ooh, ooh
