Lamb Of God That Rugged Cross

Oh 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.

Lamb of god that rugged cross.

Man of sorrows lamb of god by his own betrayed the sin of man and wrath of god has been on jesus laid silent as he stood accused beaten mocked and scorned bowing to the father s will he took a crown of thorns oh that rugged cross my salvation where your love poured out over me now my soul cries out hallelujah praise and honour unto thee sent of. For the dear lamb of god left his.

In the old rugged cross stained with blood so divine.

For the dear lamb of god left his glory above to bear it to dark calvary. To bear it to dark calvary.
