The Old Rugged Cross Suffered the Worlds Greatest Loss

My favorite of songs is The Old Rugged Cross. The most tragic of days was the worlds’ greatest loss. For sinners that day were all given their chance. His Father in heaven could not even bear to look not even one glance. Forgive them He prayed as His life’s blood ran down to the ground. Can you picture Him there wearing that thorny old crown? On that hill so far away, sad but precious memories were made. Born of a virgin mother in the tomb He was laid. Death could not hold Him, death would not last. Three days in that tomb, so long ago, death too it would pass. He arose and was seen by many it was said. Our Savior arose from the grave and no longer was dead. As He gave His final words to His apostles and friends. He ascended to the clouds but they knew they would see Him again. He made us a promise He would rule once again. I feel that day is coming we’re reaching the end. The prophecies that abound. With each new day they seem to be coming unwound. Are you ready my friend for the Millennium Reign? Are have you sunk to wearing the mark worn by Cain? Sacrifices my friend we all have to do. Just look at Jesus and the sacrifice He made, was made just for you . So on that hill so far away I kneel at the thought. With His precious blood my cleansing was bought. And what have we learned, or did He die just for nought? I look to Jesus and His love I have sought. He must come first in all that we do. And when the day comes you’ll see I speak true.
