Vera Lynn - The Old Rugged Cross lyrics

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

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

To the old rugged cross I´ll ever be true
It is shame & reproach gladly bear
then he will call me someday to my home far away
where his glory forever I will share

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

In the old rugged cross stained with blood so devine
a wonderous beauty I see
for t´was on that old cross
Jesus suffered & died
to pardon & sanctify me

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