"The Old Rugged Cross" lyrics:

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

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

And I'll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
And I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown

I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown

This has been my favourite song since I was a 7yr old n still stirs me. I was a Hindu at that time but by His grace, He has drawn me into His inner circle now. However weak l may be, I know that He loves me because I still cling on to the old rugged cross.. God bless u for ur fine rendition.
