{title:159. The Old Rugged Cross}

[Ab]On a hill far away stood an [Db]old rugged cross,
[Bb]The [Eb7]emblem of suffering and [Ab]shame,
[Ab]And I love that old cross where the [Db]dearest and best
[Bb]For a [Eb7]world of lost sinners was [Ab]slain.
[Eb7]So I'll cherish the old rugged [Ab]cross,
Till my [Db]trophies at last I lay [Ab]down;
I will cling to the old rugged [Db]cross,
And [Ab]exchange it some [Eb7]day for a [Ab]crown.
