Lyrics

[Carman, Choir, Both] [The Old Rugged Cross, Verse 1, spoken] 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 [The Old Rugged Cross, Verse 2] On a hill far away Stood an old rugged cross The emblem of suffering and shame How I love that old cross Where the dearest and best For a world of lost sinners was slain [The Old Rugged Cross, Chorus] So I'll cherish the old rugged cross Til my trophies at last I lay down I will cling to the old rugged cross And exchange it someday for a crown I will cling to the old rugged cross Old ruggеd cross And exchange it someday for a crown [Oh, the Blood of Jesus, Chorus] Oh, thе blood of Jesus Oh, the blood of Jesus Oh, the blood of Jesus It washes white as snow Mmm, 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... Oh, the blood of Jesus It washes white as snow [Spoken] One day nearly 2000 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 thankful for the blood of Jesus Yes, I am 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
