The Old Rugged Cross

WELCOME!
WE'RE GLAD YOU'RE HERE

We are a group of believers who simply try to follow the Bible as a guide for all we do. Everything done in our worship service is something for which we have a Bible basis. You are welcome to participate as much or as little as you wish. We will sing hymns together and we will observe the Lord's Supper or Communion together. We will also have an opportunity to give to the work of God in this area. This collection is for the members here, and if you are visiting you should not feel and pressure to give. Our lesson time will be divided into two groups. The young children will go to our classroom area in the basement where they will be taught the Bible at a level they can understand. The adults will stay in the auditorium for a lesson at an adult level. We do try to serve the community, and if you have some needs that we can help you with, mention it to one of the members. Thank you for worshipping with us.

The Old Rugged Cross

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.

Chorus

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.

Chorus

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.

Chorus

4 To that old rugged cross I will ever be true, / Its shame and reproach gladly bear; / Then He'll call me someday to my home far away, / Where His glory for ever I'll share.

Chorus

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.
