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 
Cold 
rugged cross, 
The 
Dem
blem of 
D7suf
f'ring and 
Gshame, 
D7And 
Glove 
that old cross where the 
CDear
est and Best 
For a 
Dworld 
of lost 
D7sin
ners was 
Gslain. 
 
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.
So I'll 
Dche
rish the old rugged 
Gcross, 
Till my 
Ctro
phies at last I lay 
Gdown; 
I will cling to the old rugged 
Ccross, 
And ex
Gchange 
it some 
D7day 
for a 
Gcrown.

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.
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.

Jesus Christ died on the cross to pardon our sins. But we have to do our part by living a Christian life. Yes our sins were forgiven, but the Lord wants us to make sure we live a bright and wonderful life together.
