Album: Amazing Grace
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 Best,
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
'Til my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it someday for a crown.
Beneath the cross of Jesus
I fain would take my stand,
The shadow of a mighty Rock
Within a weary land;
A home within the wilderness,
A rest upon the way,
From the burning of the noontide heat
And the burden of the day.
In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
'Til my raptured soul shall find,
Rest beyond the river.
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
'Til my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it someday by home far away,
I'll exchange it someday for a crown.
In the cross, in the cross,
Beneath the old rugged cross.
Old rugged cross.
