Text marked as lyrics
3 In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, a wonand drous beauty I see; for 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died, to his 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. 1 On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, the emblem of suffering and shame; and I love that old cross, where the dearest and best for a world of lost sinners was slain. 2 O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, has a wondrous attraction for me; for the dear Lamb of God left his glory above to bear it to dark Calvary. cross, the old rugged cross, cross, the old rugged cross.
