The Old Rugged Cross

When I look at that cross, I don’t just see two shapes But rather I see the heart that aches The heart of our savior That made sure we had an easy way to repent for our behavior The cross is more than a just a chain or necklace that we wear But rather it’s a symbol of the pain Jesus had to bare It’s a symbolism of hope and love A gift given from up above A gift so precious that only one would pay the price That person being our savior Jesus Christ Only he loves us enough to die for us And he did it without one fuss So next time you think your life is a loss Just remember that old rugged cross
