Chord/Tab song: The Old Rugged Cross

On a hill far aw[G]ay stood an old rugged cross[C]

The [D7]emblem of suffering and [G]shame

And I love that old cross where the [C]dearest and best

For a [D7]world of lost sinners was [G]slain


So [D7]I'll cherish the old rugged [G]cross

Till my [C]trophies at last I lay [G]down

I will cling to the old rugged [C]cross

And e[G]xchange it some[D7]day for a [G]crown


O that old rugged cross so [C]despised by the world

Has a [D7]wondrous attraction for [G]me

For the dear lamb of God left [C]His glory above

To [G]bear it on [D7]dark [G]Calvary


So [D7]I'll cherish the old rugged [G]cross

Till my [C]trophies at last I lay [G]down

I will cling to the old rugged [C]cross

And e[G]xchange it some[D7]day for a [G]crown
