[C]
[G] [C]
Two thousand years ago, [F] outside the [C] eastern gate,
They led Jesus to Golgotha's hill.
He went there in my [G] place, [F] across His guard and beaten back,
[C] A world of sin [F] was tossed.
[C] They nailed Him to that rugged tree, [G]
where the [C] timbers cross.
[F] That old rugged hill became [C] a battlefield,
[G] Where the war for the souls of men [C] fought.
[F] And as the battle raged, [C] death held the grave [F] they lost,
[C] And victory hung [G] where the [C] timbers crossed.
The earth was black as midnight, [F] and He the [C] darkened sky.
Forsaken for a dead, not His, our Lord was [G] crucified.
[F] And through His bitter anguish, [C] He counted not [F] the cost.
[C] He paid the price for you and me, [G]
where the [C] timbers crossed.
[F] That old rugged hill became [C] a battlefield,
[G] Where the war for the souls of men [C] fought.
[F] And as the battle raged, [C] death held the grave [F] they lost,
[C] And victory hung
[G] where the [C] timbers crossed.
Jesus shed His blood for you and me, [G] where the [C] timbers crossed.
