Maranatha! Praise Band - The Old Rugged Cross Lyrics

Lyrics The Old Rugged Cross - Maranatha! Praise Band



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.Refrain:
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
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 that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For ′twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
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 someday to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I'll share
