Then Sings My Soul Saturday - Old Rugged Cross

THE OLD RUGGED CROSS

 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.

Refrain:
 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.

O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
has a wondrous attraction for me;

 for the dear Lamb of God left his glory above
to bear it to dark Calvary.
(Refrain)

In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
a wondrous beauty I see,
for 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
to pardon and sanctify me.
(Refrain)

To that old rugged cross I will ever 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.
(Refrain)

This is one of my favorite songs. Every time I hear this song, I always remember this verse

He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

Rom 8:32, KJV

Isn't it wonderful to remember?
