The Old Rugged Cross
Author: G. B. Appears in 368 hymnals Topics: Christ Cross of Christ; Christ Cross of Christ 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.
Chorus:
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 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. [Chorus]
3 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. [Chorus]
4 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 for ever I'll share. [Chorus]

The Old Rugged Cross
Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 544 hymnals Topics: Cross of Christ 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 noontide 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 stricken 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! Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Praise to our victorious King,
Who has washed us in the tide
Flowing from his wounded side;
Praise we him, whose love divine
Gives his sacred blood for wine,
Gives his body for the feast,
Christ the victim, Christ the priest.
2 Where the Paschal blood is poured,
Death's dark angel sheathes his sword;
Israel's hosts triumphant go
Through the wave that drowns the foe.
Praise we Christ whose blood was shed,
Paschal victim, Paschal bread!
With sincerity and love
Eat we manna from above.
3 Mighty victim from the sky,
Hell's fierce pow'rs beneath you lie;
You have conquered in the fight,
You have brought us life and light:
Now no more can death appall,
Now no more the grave enthrall;
You have opened Paradise,
And in you the saints shall rise.
4 Easter triumph, Easter joy,
This alone can sin destroy;
From sin's pow'r, Lord, set us free,
Newborn souls in you to be.
Hymns of glory, songs of praise,
Father, unto you we raise:
And to you, our risen King,
With the Spirit, praise we sing.

In the Cross of Christ
Author: John Bowring Appears in 1,534 hymnals Topics: Cross of Christ; Cross of Christ First Line: In the cross of Christ I glory Lyrics:
1 In the cross of Christ I glory,
Tow'ring 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.

From the Cross

In hope of His eternal life,

The light of glory streams;
Makes clear the way thro’ death’s dark vale,
And leads me by its beams.
From the cross, from the cross,
The light of glory streams.
3 Oh, joy! oh, rapture! thro’ the cross,
Death’s portal fallen lies;
And, lo, my coming Lord appears,
To bear me to the skies.
Thro’ the cross, thro’ the cross,
Death’s portal fallen lies.

He bids you look and live;
Yield up your heart with all its dross,
That He may pardon give.
At the cross, at the cross,
He bids you look and live. Scripture: Colossians 2:14 Used With Tune: [I walk rejoicing from the cross]
