On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross |
| [00:21.48] |
The emblem of suff'ring and shame |
| [00:27.91] |
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best |
| [00:35.79] |
For a world of lost sinners was slain |
| [00:43.17] |
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross |
| [00:50.20] |
Till my trophies at last I lay down |
| [00:57.56] |
I will cling to the old rugged cross |
| [01:04.64] |
And exchange it some day for a crown |
| [01:33.39] |
Oh that old rugged cross so despised by the world |
| [01:40.09] |
Has a wondrous attraction for me |
| [01:46.46] |
For the dear lamb of god left his glory above |
| [01:53.59] |
To bear it to dark calvary |
| [02:01.47] |
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross |
| [02:08.83] |
Till my trophies at last I lay down |
| [02:16.69] |
I will cling to the old rugged cross |
| [02:25.32] |
And exchange it some day for a crown |
