The Old Rugged Cross Annotated
[Verse 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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
So I'll cherish (So I'll cherish)
Let me cherish (Yes I'll cherish)
Yes I'll cherish (The cross)
Cherish the cross
So I'll cherish (So I'll cherish)
Let me cherish (Yes I'll cherish, yeah)
Yes I'll cherish (Cherish the cross)
Cherish the cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling, I will cling to the old rugged cross
Hey, hey
And I'll exchange it (I'll exchange it)
Someday for the crown
So I'll cherish (So I'll cherish, Let me cherish)
Let me cherish (Yes I'll cherish)
Yes I'll cherish (Cherish the cross)
Cherish the cross
So I'll cherish (So I'll cherish)
Let me cherish (Yes I'll cherish)
Yes I'll cherish (Cherish the cross)
Cherish the cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
Oh, oh
And I'll exchange it (I'll exchange it)
Someday
Yes, I'll exchange it (Yes, I'll exchange it, yeah, yeah)
Yes I'll exchange it
Someday
Yes, I'll exchange it (Yes, I'll exchange it)
Someday
Can you exchange it
Someday
Will you exchange it?
