Daniel O'Donnell The Old Rugged Cross song lyrics

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross

The emblem of sufferin' and shame

And I love that old cross where the dearest and best

For a world of lost sinners were 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.

Oh, 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.

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.

I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange it some day for a crown...
