Hello, friends.
I hope you all will enjoy these beautiful hymns as much as I have singing them for you.
My dear mother taught them to me when I was just a little boy.
[F#]
[C#] [F#]
On a hill far away stood [B] an old rugged cross, the [C#] emblem of suffering and shame.
And I love that old cross, where [B] the dearest and best for the world, a lost sinner, [F#] was slain.
[C#] So I'll cherish the old [F#] rugged cross [B] till my trophies at last [F#] I lay down.
I will cling to the [F#] old [B] rugged cross [F#] and exchange it [C#] someday [F#] for a crown.
[B] What a beautiful hymn.
[C#] I thought maybe you'd like to know.
My mother taught [F#] that to me when I was just a little towsel-headed boy at her knee.
What a beautiful thing.
[B] Sing along with me, will you, the next verse.
[C#]
[F#] To the old rugged cross I [B] will ever be true.
[C#] Its shame and reproach [F#] gladly bear.
Then He'll call me someday to [B] my home far away, [C#] where His glory forever [F#] I'll share.
Come on and sing with me.
[C#] Cherish the old [F#] rugged cross, I sure will, [B] till my trophies at last [F#] I lay down.
I will cling to the old [B] rugged cross [F#] and exchange it [C#] someday for a crown.
[B]
