Текст песни The Old Rugged Cross

On a hill far away, stood an old rugged cross,

The emblem of suff'ring and shame,

And I love that old Cross where the dearest and the best,

For a world of lost sinners was slain.

And 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.

On that old rugged cross, so despised by this old world.

Has a wondrous attraction for me,

For a dear Lamb of God left His glory above,

To bear it to dark cavalry.

And 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...
