THE OLD RUGGED CROSS


Can you hold on to the old rugged cross?
Wait until it wipes away the tears in your eyes
Holding on to it may be heavy
But the price you pay it’s worth eternity

Sometimes, it takes forever to get the things we hoped for
Maybe the reason blessings are delayed is for a cause
Delay doesn't necessary mean you are neglected
Maybe He is giving us time to set our lives right

To ensure we are ready to take up our birthright
This old rugged cross has been carried for decades
It’s the only path that doesn't lead to destruction
It’s going to be stormy as you journey on

You will be thirsty but don’t let water
Keep you seconds away from your goal
The old rugged cross leads to a place where dream comes through
It's a place miracles are bound to happen

If you come across a mountain you can’t climb
He is beside you and will give you a leap to push you through
For the old rugged cross
Can change back the hands of time in your life
