[Bbm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [Ab] On a _ hill _ [Fm] far [Eb] _ [Ab] away _ _ stood [Db] the _ _ _ old [Gm] rugged [Db] _ cross,
_ [Bb] _ [Gm] the emblem _ [C] _ _ [Eb] _ [Bbm] of [Eb] _ suffering _ [C] and _ [Dm]
shame.
[Db] _ _ [D] _ _ [Bb] _ And _ [Eb] I _ [Ab] love _ [G]
that old [F] cross _ [Ab] where [Db] the _ _ [G] _ dearest _ [Cm]
[Db] and [Fm] best
_ for a [Eb]
world of [Ebm] lost sinners [Bbm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ was _ [Fm] slain.
_ [D]
So I'll [Eb] cherish _ the [Ebm] old _ _ [Db] rugged _ [Ab] cross _
[Bbm] _ _ [Ab] _ till my [Db] _ _
trophies at [D] last [G] I lay [Ab] _ down.
[Db] _ I [E] _
will [F] cling _ to the [Bb] [Gb] old _
[Fm] rugged _ cross
_ _ [Bbm] _
_ [Dbm] _ in exchange, [Bb] _ _
just someday [Eb] for a _ [Abm]
crown.
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Cm] _ [Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [D] Over 2,000 years [Ab] ago you did something that was [B] [Eb] so marvelous
that it's mind [E]-blowing to us.
[D] How you decided to shed your blood
so [C] that we can walk in the newness of life
[G] and have the [B]
opportunity to lift our hands
and say Abba, [Em] Father.
_ [E]
Oh, _ _ [E] that [A] _ old [Eb] rugged [A] cross, _ _ [D] so _ [Dm] despised by [D] the world, _
[Eb] _ [E] has a wondrous [Gb] _ _ [E] attraction _ for [A] _ me. _ _
_ [Gb] For _ [A] the dear [Db] _
lamb of [Bm] God [D] left his _ glory [Gb] _ above
[B] to [E]
bear it to _ [Abm] dark [Db] Calvary.
[Gbm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Gbm] _ So _ _ [B]
I'll _ _ _ cherish _ [E] _
the old rugged _ [A] _ _ _
_ [G] cross
_ _ [Gbm] till my _ _ trophies at [Ab] last I [E] lay _ down.
_ [Bm] _
I _ _ [Em] will _ cling to the [G] old [A] rugged _ [D]
cross
_ [Gb] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[A] and exchange _ it someday [E] _
_ for _ [F] a _ _
[C] crown.
So _ [F] I'll cherish [D] the old _ [Gm] rugged _ cross
[Fm] _ _ [Bb] till [Eb] my _ trophies [E] at last [Fm] I lay [G] down.
I [Ebm] lay down.
I [Fm] will _ cling to [F] the old [Eb] rugged _ cross
_ [Dm] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ and _
[Bb] exchange it [A] someday _ [C]
for [Gm] _ _ a [Gb] crown. _ _
[Bb] I shall wear a crown _ _ _ [C] _
and _ _ exchange [Bb] _
it _ _ someday [C] _ _ _
[Ab] for _ [Gb] a _ crown.
[D] _ _ [Gb] One of these [Bb] old [C] days.
_ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ [C] And _
[Bb] in exchange, _ _ _ it's someday [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _
for _ a _ [Bb] _ crown.
