Текст (слова) песни: Jan Howard - Old Rugged Cross



“The cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Galatians 6:14

Courtesy of Old Rugged Cross Historical Museum
Words & Music: George Bennard, 1913 (MIВ­DI, score).

The Old Rugged Cross was writВ­ten in AlВ­biВ­on, MiВ­chiВ­gan. Or PoВ­kaВ­gon, MiВ­chiВ­gan. Or SturВ­geon Bay, WisВ­conВ­sin. All three towns claim to be the birthВ­place of this hymn.

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.

Refrain

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 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.

Refrain

In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see,
For `twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.

Refrain

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.

Refrain
