202. The Old Rugged Cross<br />
5 -5 6 -5 -6 6<br />
On a hill far a-way,<br />
6 6 -6 6 -7 -6<br />
stood an old rug-ged cross.<br />
-6 -7 -6 6 -5 6 -5 5<br />
The emb-lem of suffer-ing and shame.<br />
5 -5 6 -5 -6 6<br />
And I love that old cross,<br />
6 6 -6 6 -7 -6<br />
where the dear-est and best<br />
-6 -6 -7 -6 6 -9 8 -8 7<br />
for a world of lost sin-ners was slain.<br />
-7 7 -8 -8 -8 -8 7 -7 7<br />
So I'll cher-ish the old rug-ged cross,<br />
7 -7 -6 -6 -6 7 -7 -6 6<br />
Till my troph-ies at last I lay down.<br />
6 7 8 8 8 8 -9 8 -6<br />
I will cling to the old rug-ged cross<br />
-9 -9 8 -8 7 6 -7 -8 7<br />
And ex-change it some day for a crown.<br />
5 6 7 -7 -6 -5 -5 -6 6<br />
A-bove all po-wers, a - bove all kings<br />
5 6 7 -7 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 6 6<br />
A-bove all na-ture and all cre - a - ted things<br />
5 5 6 -6 -6 -7 7 -7 6 5 -6 6<br />
A-bove all wis-dom and all the ways of ma - an<br />
-5 -5 -5 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4<br />
You were there be-fore the world be-gan<br />
5 6 7 -7 -6 -5 -5 -6 6<br />
A-bove all king-doms, a-bove all thrones<br />
5 6 7 -7 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 6 6<br />
A-bove all won-ders the world has e-ver known<br />
5 5 6 -6 -7 7 -7 6 5 -6 6<br />
A-bove all wealth and trea-sures of the ear-th<br />
-5 -5 -5 6 -6 6 -5 5 5<br />
There's no way to mea-sure what You're worth<br />
8 -8 -9 -8 8 -9 8 8<br />
Cru-ci-fied, laid be-hind a stone<br />
-8 8 -8 -9 -8 -8 8 -9 8 8<br />
You Lived to die re-ject-ed and a-lone<br />
8 -8 7 8 -8 7 -7 -6 6<br />
like a rose tram-pled on the gro-und<br />
-8 7 6 -5 6 7 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 7<br />
You took the fall and thought of me - e a - bove all<br />
