   Am               G            C   D     D7 G

1. On a hill   far  a-way stood an        old      rugged cross,
2. O that old  rugged cross, so           despised by the world,
3. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood    so di- vine,
4. To the old  rugged cross I will        ev     - er be  true;
         D            D7            G      ->D7
1. The   emblem of    suffering and shame;
2. Has a wondrous a-  ttraction for me;

4. Its   shame and re-proach gladly bear;
   G               Adim     G               C      Edim     C

2. For the dear    Lamb of  God left His    glo-   ry  a - bove

             D             D7          G
1. For a     world of lost sinners was slain.
2. To        bear it to    dark Calva -ry.

4. Where His glory for-    ever I’ll   share.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
        C                D C   G
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
       G            Em       G7 C
I will cling to the old rugg-ed cross,
         G            D       D7 G
And exch-ange it some day for a  crown.
