The Old Rugged Cross
Author: George Bennard Hymnal: Baptist Hymnal 1991 #141 (1991) Meter: Irregular First Line: On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross Refrain First Line: So I'll cherish 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.
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.
2. Oh, 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.
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.
3. In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
Such a wonderful beauty I see;
For 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.
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.
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.
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.

There Is a Fountain
Author: William Cowper (1731-1800) Hymnal: Lift Every Voice and Sing II #39 (1993) First Line: There is a fountain filled with blood Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel’s veins;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains:
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.
2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away:
Wash all my sins away,
Wash all my sins away;
And there may I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sins away
3 Thou dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its pow’r;
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Are saved, to sin no more:
Are saved, to sin no more,
Are saved to sin no more;
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Are saved, to sin no more.
4 E’er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply;
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die:
And shall be till I die,
And shall be till I die,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die.
5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save;
When this poor, lisping stamm’ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave:
Lies silent in the grave,
Lies silent in the grave;
When this poor lisping, stamm’ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave. Topics: Lent and Holy Week Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a fountain filled with blood]

Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone
Author: Thomas Shepherd, 1665-1739; Thomas B. Gilbert Hymnal: His Fullness Songs #57 (1977) Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone
While all He saves go free?
No, there's a cross for every one,
And there's a cross for me.
2 My Saviour bore His cross of shame,
That I might go to heaven.
Will I then fail to own His name,
Who has my sins forgiven.
3 No, I will take His cross as mine,
For I have died with Him,
My life now comes from Christ the vine,
For victory o'er sin.
4 So, on I'll go in Christ's blest name,
And count all things but loss,
Then I shall meet Him without shame,
For bearing here my cross.
5 Then unto glory I shall go,
To be with Christ my Lord.
With all who suffer here below,
I'll share the great reward. Topics: Consecration; Cross Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone
Alas! and Did My Saviour Bleed?
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #64 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed?
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I?
2 Was it for crimes that I have done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide
And shut his glories in,
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
For man, the creature's sin.
4 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away--
'Tis all that I can do.
Amen. Topics: Blood; Christ Blood of; Christ Death of; Christ Passion; Passion Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYRDOM (Avon)

On a Hill Far Away (The Old Rugged Cross)
Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: The New National Baptist Hymnal (21st Century Edition) #106 (2001) Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I fain would take my stand,
The shadow of a mighty Rock
Within a weary land;
A home within the wilderness,
A rest upon the way
From the burning of the noonday heat
And the burden of the day.
2 Upon that cross of Jesus
Mine eye at times can see
The very dying form of One
Who suffered there for me;
And from my smitten heart with tears
Two wonders I confess--
The wonders of His glorious love
And my own worthlessness.
3 I take, O cross, thy shadow
For my abiding place--
I ask no other sunshine than
The sunshine of His face;
Content to let the world go by,
To know no gain nor loss,
My sinful self my only shame,
My glory all the cross. Topics: Atonement; Commitment; Consecration; Cross; Discipleship; Good Friday Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Behold the Savior of Mankind
Author: Samuel Wesley, 1662-1735 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #144 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Savior of mankind
Nailed to the shameful tree!
How vast the love that Him inclined
To bleed and die for thee!
2 Hark, how He groans, while nature shakes,
And earth's strong pillars bend!
The temple's veil in sunder breaks;
The solid marbles rend.
3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid!
"Receive my soul!" He cries;
See where He bows His sacred head!
He bows His head and dies!
4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain,
And in full glory shine;
O Lamb of God, was ever pain,
Was ever love, like Thine?

In the Cross of Christ, I Glory
Author: John Bowring, 1792-1872 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #158 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 First Line: In the cross of Christ I glory Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory,
Towering o'er the wrecks of time;
All the light of sacred story
Gathers round its head sublime.
2 When the woes of life o'ertake me,
Hopes deceive, and fears annoy,
Never shall the cross forsake me:
Lo! it glows with peace and joy.
3 When the sun of bliss is beaming
Light and love upon my way,
From the cross the radiance streaming
Adds more luster to the day.
4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,
By the cross are sanctified;
Peace is there, that knows no measure,
Joys that thro' all time abide.
5 In the cross of Christ I glory,
Towering o'er the wrecks of time;
All the light of sacred story
Gathers round its head sublime.
