"The Old Rugged Cross" by George Bennar

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.

[Refrain:]
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true,
It's shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then he'll call me some day to my home far away,
Where his glory forever I'll share.
[Refrain]
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
Back to Verse 1

Song Meanings:

"The Old Rugged Cross" is a popular hymn that is written in 1912 by song-leader and evangelist George Bennard, the song speaks of the writer's adoration of Christ and His sacrifice at Calvary.
In a world full of Distractions, immorality, lover of self and a Generation who are given to reprobate mind, as Christians we need to stay true to our faith, Cling to the cross and look into Jesus, the Author and Finisher of Our Faith.

I hope you enjoy the song.
