Karaoké The Old Rugged Cross Ricky Van Shelton

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 '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 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

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

In the 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

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

To the old rugged cross

I will ever be true

Its shame and reproach gladly bear

Then He'll call me some day to that home far away where His glory forever

I'll share

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

And exchange it some day for a crown
