The Old Rugged Cross/Oh, The Blood Of Jesus

The Old Rugged Cross/Oh, The Blood Of Jesus lyrics

[Carman, Choir, ] [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
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 slainSo I'll
Old ruggеd cross
And exchange it someday for a crownOh, thе blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Jesus
It washes white as snowMmm, 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

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...
You know,
Yes, I am
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
Yes, it does
