The Old Rugged Cross

     G                 C
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
    D7                      G
The emblem of suffering and shame;
                                    C
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
      D7                        G
For a world of lost sinners was slain.

Chorus:

   D                D7         G
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
        C                      G
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
                               C
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
     G              D7        G
And exchange it someday for a crown.

                            C
O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
    D7                        G
Has a wondrous attraction for me;
                                  C
For the dear lamb of God left His glory above,
   D7                 G
To bear it on dark Calvary.

Chorus:
                                      C
In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
  D7                G
A wondrous beauty I see;
                                    C
For ‘twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
   D7                  G
To pardon and sanctify me.

Chorus:
                               C
To the old rugged cross I will ever be true,
    D7                        G
Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
                                  C
Then He’ll call me someday to His home far away,
      D7                     G
Where His glory forever I’ll share.

Chorus:
