The Old Rugged Cross

G                           C
On a hill far away stood an old 
rugged cross

    D7                      G
The emblem of suffering and shame

And I love that old cross where the

dearest and best

      D7                       
For a world of lost sinners was

slain


   D7                          G

I will cling to the old rugged cross

     G              D7        G
And exchange it someday for a crown

O that old rugged cross so despised 
by the world

      D7                      G
Has a wondrous attraction for me

                              C

glory above

To bear it on dark Calvary

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross

And exchange it someday for a crown
