VERSE 1
On a hill, stood an old rugged cross
Symbol of suffering and shame
Oh, how I love that old rugged cross
Where the savior of sinners was slain
PRECHORUS
So I’ll cherish that cross
Til my trophies laid down
I’ll exchange them someday for a crown
CHORUS
Thank you for the cross
The redeeming, life-giving
Power of the cross
By your mercy, You saved me
Oh I was once lost
Til you called my name
Every chain is gone
What amazing grace
Thank you for the cross
VERSE 2
Oh, how I’ll cling to that old rugged cross
It’s wondrous beauty I see
Where Jesus died on that old rugged cross
To pardon and sanctify me
CHORUS
Thank you for the cross
The redeeming, life-giving
Power of the cross
By your mercy, You saved me
Oh I was once lost
Til you called my name
Every chain is gone
What amazing grace
Thank you for the cross
PRECHORUS
So I’ll cherish that cross
Til my trophies laid down
I will cherish that cross
Til my trophies laid down
I will cherish that cross
Til my trophies laid down
I’ll exchange them someday for a crown
CHORUS
Thank you for the cross
The redeeming, life-giving
Power of the cross
By your mercy, You saved me
Oh I was once lost
Til you called my name
Every chain is gone
What amazing grace
Thank you for the cross
CHORUS
Thank you for the cross
The redeeming, life-giving
Power of the cross
By your mercy, You saved me
Oh I was once lost
Til you called my name
Every chain is gone
What amazing grace
Thank you for the cross
Thank you for the cross
