Spiritual Sunday- With Patsy Cline

The old rugged cross      (Listen to midi)

              D           D7                G            

1. On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,

            A               A7                    D

    the emblem of suffering and shame,

                                    D7                      G               Em

    and I love that old cross where the dearest and best

               A               A7                  D

    for a world of lost sinners was slain.

             A                                  D

So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,

            G                              D

till my trophies at last I lay down.

                           D7                G

I will cling to the old rugged cross,

               D                     A             D

and exchange it some day for a crown.

                     D            D7                G                 

2. O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,

                A                 A7             D

    has a wondrous attraction for me,

                                       D7                 G      Em

    for the dear Lamb of God left His glory above,

           A           A7            D

    to bear it to dark Calvary. 

             A                                  D

So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,

            G                              D

till my trophies at last I lay down.

                           D7                G

I will cling to the old rugged cross,

               D                     A             G - D

and exchange it some day for a cro…wn.
