Carl Smith - Blood That Stained The Old Rugged Cross lyrics

On the cross of Calvary our blessed Saviour died, Gave His life to save the world from loss; In His pain and agony, for every sin to hide, Shed the blood that stained the old rugged cross. [CHORUS] 'Twas His blood, His precious blood that stained the old rugged cross, 'Twas His love that paid the awful cost; Oh soul so far astray come and plunge today In the blood that stained the old rugged cross [ guitar ] To the cross, the rugged cross they nailed His precious hands And in d**h He fully paid the cost, There is pardon in His love for everyone that stands For the blood that stained the old rugged cross [repeat Chorus] What an awful d**h He died to pardon you and me, All alone in agony He tossed, And a world once lost in sin can now be wholly free By the blood that stained the old rugged cross. [repeat chorus]
