The Old Rugged Cross

George Bennard

[Intro]
Change it one day for a crown

[Verse 1]
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross
An emblem of suffering and shame
Oh, but I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain

[Chorus]
So, I'll cherish the old rugged cross (Rugged cross)
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I'm gonna cling to the old rugged cross
And I'll exchange it one day for my crown

[Verse 2]
Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world
Has a wonderful attraction, Lord, for me
For the dear Lamb of God left His glorious home above
To bear it on dark Calvary

[Chorus]
So, I'll cherish the old rugged cross (Rugged cross)
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I'm gonna cling to thе old rugged cross
And I'll exchange it onе day, and get my crown
So, I'll cherish the old rugged cross (Rugged cross)
Till my trophies at last I lay down
You know I'm gonna cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it one day to get my crown
