1. 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.

2. O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
has a wondrous attraction for me;
for the dear Lamb of God left his glory above
to bear it to dark Calvary.
(Refrain)

3. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
a wondrous beauty I see,
for 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
to pardon and sanctify me.
(Refrain)

4. To that old rugged cross I will ever be true,
its 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)

for it's the emblem of amazing grace. Love this song!

The song is so beautiful, I heard it on the Fundamentalist Broadcast Network Radio. It starts "On a hill, so very far away, stood an old rugged cross.... then the chorus I'll still cherish the old rugged cross, for it was there Christ died in my place, I will forever cling to the old rugged cross..." That is all I can remember. Please help. God Bless.
