Verse 1
(G major) On a hill far away stood
an (C major) old rugged cross
The (D major) emblem of suffering and (G major) shame
And I love that old cross
where the (C minor) dearest (C major) and best
For a (D major) world of lost sinners was (G major) slain
So I'll (D major) cherish the old rugged cross (G major)
Till my (C major) trophies at last I (G major) lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross (C major)
And exchange (G major) it some (D major) day for a (G major) crown
Verse 2
O that (G major) old rugged cross,
so (C major) despised by the world
Has (D major) a wondrous attraction for (G major) me
(D major) For the (G major) dear Lamb of God
left His (C major) glory above
To (D major) bear it to dark Calvary
(G major) 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 (D major) exchange it some day

Verse 3
for a crown
(D major) In that old rugged cross, (G major)
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 (C major) cherish the old rugged
cross
Till my trophies at last I lay (G major) down
I will cling to the old rugged (C major) cross
And ex (G major) change it some (D major) day for a
(G major) crown
Interlude 1

(C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 4
To the (G major) old rugged cross I will (C minor) ever be true (C major)
Its (D major) shame and reproach gladly (G major) bear
Then He'll call me some day
to (C major) my home far away
Where (D major) His glory forever I'll (G major) share
So I'll (D major) cherish the old rugged cross (G major)
Till my (C major) trophies at last I lay down (G major)
(D major) I will (G major) cling to the old (D major) rugged (G major) cross (C major)
And ex (G major) change it some (D major) day for a (G major) crown
