The Old Rugged Cross

Give

Verse 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

Chorus

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

Verse 2

O the 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

Verse 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

Verse 4

To the 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

How Great Thou Art

How Great Thou Art Verse 1 O Lord my God When I in awesome wonder Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made I see the stars I hear the rolling thunder Thy pow'r thru'out The universe displayed Chorus Then sings my soul My Savior God to Thee How great Thou art How great Thou art Then sings my soul My Savior God to Thee How great Thou art How great Thou art Verse 2 When through the woods And forest glades I wander And hear the birds Sing sweetly in the trees When I look down From lofty mountain grandeur And hear the brook And feel the gentle breeze Verse 3 And when I think That God His Son not sparing Sent Him to die I scarce can take it in That on the cross My burden gladly bearing He bled and died To take away my sin Verse 4 When Christ shall come With shout of acclamation And take me home What joy shall fill my heart Then I shall bow In humble adoration And there proclaim My God how great Thou art

Amazing Grace

Amazing Grace Verse 1 Amazing grace how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now am found Was blind but now I see Verse 2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed Verse 3 Through many dangers toils and snares I have already come 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far And grace will lead me home Verse 4 When we've been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we've first begun

I'll Fly Away

I'll Fly Away Verse 1 Some glad morning when this life is o'er I'll fly away To a home on God's celestial shore I'll fly away Chorus I'll fly away O glory I'll fly away When I die hallelujah by and by I'll fly away Verse 2 When the shadows of this life have grown I'll fly away Like a bird from prison bars has flown I'll fly away Verse 3 Just a few more weary days and then I'll fly away To a land where joys shall never end I'll fly away
