ON A HILL FAR AWAY Lyrics

ON A HILL FAR AWAY - Cornelius Benjamin

...

On a hill far away,

Stood on an old rugged cross

the emblem of suffering and shame

and I love that old cross

where the dearest and best

for a world of loss sinners was slain

chorus; so i'll cherish the old rugged cross

till my trophies at last I lay down

i'll cling to that old rugged cross and exchange someday for a crown...

chorus; so i'll cherish the old rugged cross

till my trophies at last I lay down

i'll cling to that old rugged cross and exchange someday for a crown...

To the old rugged cross

I will ever be true

it's shame and reproach gladly bear

then he'll call me someday

to my home faraway

where his glory forever i'll share

chorus; so i'll cherish the old rugged cross

till my trophies at last I lay down

i'll cling to that old rugged cross and exchange someday for a crown...

chorus; so i'll cherish the old rugged cross

till my trophies at last I lay down

i'll cling to that old rugged cross and exchange someday for a crown...
