[G]
On a hill far away [C] stood an old [Am] rugged cross, [D] The emblem of suffering [G] and shame.
And I love that old cross [C] where the dearest [Am] and best [D] For a world of lost sinners [G] was slain.
So [D] I'll cherish the old [G] rugged cross Till [C] my trophies at last I [G] lay down.
[D]
[G] I will cling to the old rugged [C] cross [Am] And [D] exchange it someday for [G] a crown.
