[C] [F]
On a hill far away stood [Bb] an old rugged cross, [C] the emblem of [C] suffering [F] and shame.
And I love that old cross where [Bb] the dearest and best [C] for a world of lost sinners [F] was slain.
So [G] [C] I'll cherish the old [F] rugged cross till [Bb] my trophy's at last I [F] lay down.
I will cling to the old [Cm] rugged [Bb] cross and [F] exchange it [C] someday for [F] a crown.
Oh, that old rugged cross, so [Bb]
despised by the world, [C] has a wondrous attraction [C] [F] for me.
