`1. On a hill far a-way stood an old rugged cross the emblem of suffering and shame.
2. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine a wondrous beauty I see,
3. To that old rugged cross I will ever be true, its shame and reproach gladly bear

1. and I love that old cross where the dearest and best for a world of lost sinners was slain.
2. for ‘twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died, to pardon and sanctify me.
3. then he’ll call me someday to my home far away, where his glory forever I’ll share.
[Chorus]
