The Old Rugged Cross Lyrics

Alan Jackson

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
So I'll cherish the Old Rugged Cross Till my trophies at last I lay down And I will cling to the Old Rugged Cross And exchange it some day for a crown
To the Old Rugged Cross, I will ever be true It's shame and reproach, gladly bear [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/the-old-rugged-cross-lyrics-alan-jackson.html ] Then He'll call me some day 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 And I will cling to the Old Rugged Cross And exchange it some day for a crown
Yeah, I will cling to the Old Rugged Cross And exchange it some day for a crown

My Grandfather, my mentor p****ed away on Palm Sunday of this year 2009. Thus was his favorite Hymn and It was one of the hymns that was played at his funeral. I can never listen to this hymn the same way again as long I live. Irronically He was born on Easter Sunday in 1921 and p****ed away on Palm Sunday 2009.
