The Old Rugged Cross piano leadsheet with chords
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 darkest 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,
its shame and reproach gladly bear;
then He'll call me some day to my home far away,
where His glory forever I'll share.
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 crown.
