Key: G

| G C G D/F# |

G G7

On a hill far away

C

stood an old rugged cross

D/F# G

The emblem of suffering and shame

Gsus4 C

And I love that old cross

G

where the dearest and best

D /F# C G

For a world of lost sinners was slain.

D/F# G

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross

C G D

Till my trophies at last I lay down

G C

I will cling to the old rugged cross,

D G D/F# G

And exchange it some day for a crown.

G

Oh, that old rugged cross

C

so despised by the world

D/F# G

Has a wondrous attraction for me

G

For the dear Lamb of God left

C

His glory above

D/F# C G

To bear it to dark Calvary.

G7

In that old rugged cross,

C

stained with blood so divine,

D/F# G

A wondrous beauty I see;

G

For ’twas on that old cross

C

Jesus suffered and died,

D/F# C G

To pardon and sanctify me.
