I believe in a hill called Mount Calv’ry
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I’ll still cling to the old rugged cross

I believe that the Christ who was slain on the cross
Has the power to change lives today
For he changed me completely a new life is mine
That is why by the cross I will stay

I believe in a hill called Mount Calv’ry
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I’ll still cling to the old rugged cross

I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it someday for a crown
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I’ll still cling to the old rugged cross
