Old Rugged Cross Songtext
von The Forester Sisters

On a hill far away stood and 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 never 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
