The Old Rugged Cross

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

R: And I'll cherish the old rugged cross

until my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

2. To the old rugged cross I will ever be true

Its shame and reproach gladly bear

Then He'll call me some day to my home far away

Where His glory forever I'll share

R: And I`ll...

I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange it some day for a crown
