Artist/Band: Merle Haggard
Lyrics for Song: Old Rugged Cross
Lyrics for Album: Songs For the Mama That Tried [1981]



(George Bernard)



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 word of lost sinners were slain.



--- Instrumental ---



I will 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...


Album Lyrics: Songs For the Mama That Tried [1981]
