Medley: The Old Rugged Cross
Oh, that old rugged cross, so very much despised by the world--it still holds a wondrous attraction to me; for the Bible says that it was there that the dear Lamb of God left the glory that He had above to bear it on dark Calvary.
On a hill far away stood 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 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.
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
(old rugged cross)
And exchange it some day for a crown.
"Oh the Blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Jesus!
Oh, the blood of Jesus!
Oh, the blood of Jesus!
It washes white as snow.
Oh, the blood... of Jesus
(Oh, the blood of Jesus!)
Oh, the blood... of Jesus
(Oh, the blood of Jesus!)
Somebody say, Oh, the blood... of Jesus
(Oh, the blood of Jesus!)
It washes white as snow.
One day, nearly two thousand years ago, John the Baptist saw Jesus standing along the banks of the Jordan.
He pointed his finger and he said these words:
"Behold, the Lamb."
But you see, folks, this lamb isn't just an ordinary lamb.
This lamb is from God; and this lamb just doesn't cover, but this lamb takes sin away.
Behold, The Lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world.
That's why today I can say,
I'm thankful for the blood of Jesus!
You know, I'm
I'm thankful for the blood of Jesus!
Yes, I am
Oh, I'm thankful for the blood of Jesus!
It washes white as snow.
Oh, the blood... of Jesus!
(Oh, the blood of Jesus!)
Oh, the blood... of Jesus!
(Oh, the blood of Jesus!)
Oh, the blood of Jesus!
(Oh, the blood of Jesus!)
It washes white as snow.
Yes, it does
It washes white as snow.
It washes white as snow.
On a hill far away stood 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 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.
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
(old rugged cross)
And exchange it some day for a crown.
