old rugged cross

Jason Mraz

On a hill far away
Stood an old rugged cross
The emblem of suffering and shame
Well I love that old cross
Where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain

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

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true
Its shame and reproach gladly bear
Then he ll call me
someday to my home far away
Where his glory forever I ll share

And 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 someday for a crown

And 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 someday for a crown
