[V1]
A D E7 A
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, The emblem of suff'ring and shame;
A D E7 A
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best, For a world of lost sinners was slain.
[C]
E7 A
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
D A
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
A D
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
A E7 A
And exchange it some day for a crown.
[V2]
A D E7 A
Oh that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, Has a wondrous attraction for me;
A A E7 A
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above, To bear it to dark Calvary.
[V3]
A D E7 A
In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, A wondrous beauty I see;
A D E7 A
For twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died, To pardon and sanctify me.
[V4]
A D E7 A
To the old rugged cross I will ever be true, Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
A D E7 A
Then He'll call me some day to my home far away, Where his glory forever I'll share.
