The Old Rugged Cross
Author: George Bennard, 1873-1958 Hymnal: Lead Me, Guide Me (2nd ed.) #727 (2012) Meter: 12.8.12.8 with refrain Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:22-25 First Line: On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross Refrain First Line: So I'll cherish the cross, the old rugged cross Lyrics: 1 On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suff'ring 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 cross, the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the cross, the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
2 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]
3 In the 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]
4 To the 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] Topics: Exaltation of the Holy Cross September 14th; Cross; Grace; Lamb of God; Mercy, Forgiveness; Paschal Mystery; Saving Blood of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: OLD RUGGED CROSS

Awake my soul, awake my tongue;
Hosanna to th’eternal name,
And allhHis boundless love proclaim.

The brightest image of his grace;
God, in the person of his Son,
Has all his noblest works outdone.
3 The spacious earth, and spreading flood
Proclaim the wise, and pow'rful God;
And thy rich glories from afar,
Sparkle in ev'ry rolling star.
4 But in his looks a glory stands,
The noblest labour of thine hands:
The pleasing lustre of his eyes
Outshines the wonders of the skies.
5. Grace! ‘tis a sweet, a charming theme;
My thoughts rejoice at Jesus’ name!
Ye angels, dwell upon the sound;
Ye heav’ns reflect it to the ground!
6 Oh, may I live to reach the place
Where he unveils his lovely face!
Where all his beauties you behold,
And sing his name, to harps of gold! Topics: Attributes, Characters, Names, and Offices of Christ, from the New Testatment Languages: English

Begin, my soul, some heavenly theme
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #73 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:8-9 Lyrics: 1 Begin, my soul, some heavenly theme,
Awake, my voice, and sing
The mighty works, or mightier name,
Of our eternal King.
2 Tell of his wondrous faithfulness,
And sound his power abroad,
Sing the sweet promise of his grace,
And the performing God.
3 Proclaim salvation from the Lord,
For wretched, dying men:
His hand hath writ the sacred word
With an immortal pen.
4 Engraved as in eternal brass
The mighty promise shines;
Nor can the powers of darkness 'rase
Those everlasting lines.
5 His every word of grace is strong,
As that which built the skies;
The voice that rolls the stars along,
Speaks all the promises.
6 Now shall my fainting heart rejoice,
To know thy favor sure;
I trust the all-creating voice,
And faith desires no more.

The Way of the Cross Leads Home
Author: Jessie B. Pounds Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #404 (1980) Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18 First Line: I must needs go home by the way of the cross Refrain First Line: The way of the cross leads me home Lyrics: 1 I must needs go home by the way of the cross,
There’s no other way but this;
I shall ne’er get sight of the Gates of Light,
If the way of the cross I miss.
Chorus:
The way of the cross leads home,
The way of the cross leads home;
It is sweet to know, as I onward go,
The way of the cross leads home.
2 I must needs go on in the blood-sprinkled way,
The path that the Savior trod,
If I ever climb to the heights sublime,
Where the soul is at home with God. (Chorus)
3 Then I bid farewell to the way of the world,
To walk in it nevermore;
For my Lord says, “Come,” and I seek my home,
Where He waits at the open door. (Chorus)
