"The Old Rugged Cross"
(Originally by George Bennard)
On a hill far away, stood an old rugged Cross
The emblem of suff'ring 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 CrossṬ
Till my trophies 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
In the old rugged Cross, stain'd with blood so divine
A wondrous beauty I see
For the dear Lamb of God, left his Glory above
To pardon and sanctify me
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
