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.
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.
O, The 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.
In The Old Rugged Cross,
Stained With Blood So Divine,
A Wondrous Beauty I See;
For It Was On That Old Cross
Jesus Suffered And Died
To Pardon And Sanctify Me.
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,
When His Glory For Ever I’ll Share.
