Artist/Band: Johnny Cash
Lyrics for Song: The Old Rugged Cross
Lyrics for Album: Chapter & Verse [2008]



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

(Rugged cross)

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross

(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 my home far away

Where His glory forever I'll share



So I'll cherish the old rugged cross

(Rugged cross)

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross

(Rugged cross)

And exchange it some day for a crown

And exchange it some day for a crown
