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

'TIL 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

IT'S SHAME

AND REPROACH

GLADLY BEAR

THEN HE'LL CALL ME

SOME DAY

TO MY HOME

FAR AWAY

WHERE HIS GLORY

FOREVER

I'LL SHARE

AND I'LL CHERISH

THE OLD RUGGED CROSS

'TIL MY TROPHIES

AT LAST I LAY DOWN

I WILL CLING

TO THE OLD

RUGGED CROSS

AND EXCHANGE IT

SOME DAY

FOR A CROWN

YEAH I WILL CLING

TO THE OLD

RUGGED CROSS

AND EXCHANGE IT

SOME DAY

FOR A CROWN
