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.
GOn
a hill far away stood an
C
old
rugged cross,
The
D
emblem
of
D7
suff'ring
and
G-D7
shame,
And I
G
love
that old cross where the
C
Dearest
and Best
For a
D
world
of lost
D7
sinners
was
G
slain.
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 some day for a crown.
GSo
I'll
D
cherish
the old rugged
G
cross,
Till my
C
trophies
at last I lay
G
down;
I will cling to the old rugged
C
cross,
And
ex
G
change
it some
D7
day
for a
G
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 the 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.
In the 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.
GIn
the old rugged cross, stained with
C
blood
so divine,
A
D
wondrous
D7
beauty
I see;
For 'twas
G
on
that old cross Jesus
C
suffered
and died,
To
D
pardon
and
D7
sanctify
me.
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 some day for a crown.
This is my absolute favorite hymn of all times. I remember as a young child at church requesting to sing this song every chance I got. When I pass into the heavenly gates I want this sung at my funeral. It is because of this song we are saved. Thank You Jesus for giving up Your life for ours!!
Only one cross, only one body, only one's precious blood saves me, and will save the world. How I love that old cross. Jesus said, "If I be lifted up, I will draw all men to myself." Who would have thought He would allow Himself to be lifted on a cross of crucifixion for a worthless sinner like me, and maybe you too.
What could be better than that He (Jesus Christ) laid down His life for me that I may have life. That old rugged cross where He bled and died for me. Thank You Jesus. I well meet You some day by and by.
