Lyrics to the song old rugged cross.

The story behind the old rugged cross. In the old rugged cross stain d with blood so divine a wondrous beauty i see for the dear lamb of god left his glory above to pardon and 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 to the old rugged cross i will ever be true. Oh that old rugged cross so despised by the world has a wondrous attraction for me. 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.

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 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 oh that old rugged cross so. For the dear lamb of god left his glory above to bear it to dark calvary. In the old rugged cross stain d with blood so divine a wondrous beauty i see for the dear lamb of god left his glory above to pardon and 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 to the old rugged cross i will ever be true. 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.
