[ti:The Old Rugged Cross] [ar:Maranatha! Music] [al:Top 100 Modern Hymns And Classic Songs] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.94]On a hill far away, stood an old rugged Cross, [00:07.94] [00:09.39]The emblem of suff'ring and shame, [00:14.41] [00:17.83]And I love that old Cross where the dearest and best, [00:24.60] [00:26.60]For a world of lost sinners was slain. [00:31.63] [00:34.82]So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross, [00:39.83] [00:43.50]Till my trophies at last I lay down, [00:48.53] [00:51.74]I will cling to the old rugged Cross, [00:57.02] [01:00.58]And exchange it some day for a crown. [01:05.34] [01:09.90]That old rugged Cross so despised by the world, [01:17.44] [01:19.20]Has a wondrous attraction for me, [01:24.46] [01:28.11]For the dear Lamb of God, left his Glory above, [01:35.75] [01:38.04]To bear it to dark Calvary. [01:42.03] [01:47.14]So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross, [01:52.19] [01:55.56]Till my trophies at last I lay down, [02:00.61] [02:03.60]I will cling to the old rugged Cross, [02:09.27] [02:12.69]And exchange it some day for a crown. [02:18.06] [02:21.98]In the old rugged Cross, stain'd with blood so divine, [02:29.52] [02:31.66]A wondrous beauty I see, [02:37.48] [02:41.37]For 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died [02:49.81] [02:51.34]To pardon and sanctify me. [02:57.53] [03:01.74]So I'll cherish the old rugged cross, [03:06.79] [03:10.17]Till my trophies at last I lay down, [03:15.26] [03:18.17]I will cling to the old rugged cross, [03:23.72] [03:27.29]And exchange it someday for a crown. [03:32.72] [03:36.50]To the old rugged cross I will ever be true, [03:44.40] [03:46.32]It's shame and approach gladly bear; [03:51.63] [03:55.41]Then He'll call me someday to my home far away, [04:03.24] [04:04.92]Where His glory forever I'll share. [04:10.80] [04:14.31]So I'll cherish the old rugged cross, [04:20.25] [04:24.10]Till my trophies at last I lay down, [04:29.78] [04:33.47]I will cling to the old rugged cross, [04:39.53] [04:43.63]And exchange it someday for a crown [04:51.66] [04:56.56]So I'll cherish the old rugged cross, [05:02.11] [05:05.58]Till my trophies at last I lay down, [05:10.75] [05:14.18]I will cling to the old rugged cross, [05:19.45] [05:23.50]And exchange it someday for a crown [05:31.26]The Old Rugged Cross - Maranatha!
