The Old Rugged Cross

Source

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.
   ..
   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. Oh, 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.
   ...
3. In the 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.
   ..

This song alesy draws me closer to God whenever I sing it, it really shows I dont have any help or hope in this world, only in the cross. Only in the cross do I take solace, there is no high hill or low valley that can help me, only in the cross.

The best thing a believer can cling unto or be attracted to is the Cross, in that is the crucifixion to sin and calling to Christ's Glory. The cross, the essence of our Christian walk on earth.
