Old Rugged Cross


Friends, let us surrender our life on this Good Friday - you may not get other chance…

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, till my
Trophies last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged
Cross, and exchange it someday 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 the bear it to dark Calvary.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, till my
Trophies last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged
Cross, and exchange it someday for a crown.

In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, a
Wondrous beauty I see, for it was on that old cross Jesus
Suffered and died, to pardon and sanctify me.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, till my
Trophies last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged
Cross, and exchange it someday for a crown.

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.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, till my
Trophies last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged
Cross, and exchange it someday for a crown.
