Catherine Mullins - The Old Rugged Cross Lyrics

[Verse 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

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

[Verse 2]
Oh,  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

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

[Verse 3]
To the old rugged cross will I ever be true
Its shame and reproach gladly bear
Then He’ll call me someday to that home far away
Where His glory forever I'll share
[Chorus]
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 someday for a crown
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
'Til my trophies at last I lay down
And I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it someday for a crown
And exchange it someday for a crown
