The Old Rugged Cross

               A               
On a hill far away stood an old 
            D
rugged cross
    E                       A
The emblem of suffering and shame
And I love that old cross where the 
D
dearest and best
      E                        
For a world of lost sinners was 
 A
slain

[Chorus]
   E                           A
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
        D                      A
Till my trophies at last I lay down

                               D
I will cling to the old rugged cross
     A              E         A
And exchange it someday for a crown

[Verse]
A                            D
O the old rugged cross so despised 
by the world
      E                       A
Has a wondrous attraction for me
                              D
For the dear lamb of God left His 
glory above
   A          E    A
To bear it to dark Calvary

[Chorus]
   E                           A
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
        D                      A
Till my trophies at last I lay down
                               D
I will cling to the old rugged cross
     A              E         A
And exchange it someday for a crown
