Sunday

 Happy Sunday

We sang The Old Rugged Cross at church this morning.

Probably one of the best known hymns and it happens

to be one of my favorites.

It brings tears to me eyes every time!!

The Old Rugged Cross

George Bennard

 1. 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.

Refrain:

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. O 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 that 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. 

4. To that old rugged cross I will ever be true,

its shame and reproach gladly bear;

then he'll call me some day to my home far away,

where his glory forever I'll share.

THE OLD RUGGED CROSS

I am so thankful that our church still sings all the

old wonderful hymns.

I Peter 2:24

 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, 

that we, being dead to sins, 

should live unto righteousness: 

by whose stripes ye were healed.

A Blessed Sunday to you.
