"The Old Rugged Cross" lyrics - HARRY CONNICK, JR.

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

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 someday for a crown
I'll exchange it someday for a crown
