The Old Rugged Cross

GLORIA GAITHER, WILLIAM J. GAITHER

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

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true
It's shame and reproach gladly bear
Till He’ll call me some day
To my home far away
Where His glory forever I’ll share
