´The Old Rugged Crossµ

(Clarissa Rosalia) Too many days that passed us by Too many times that we have tried Marvellous trials we can·t deny Pains and heartaches, we have cried. And in those times in our lives We always ask God ´Why? Oh why?µ We never think of Him who died On the cross, was crucified. Because of us, He sacrificed All the gracious things in life The Son of God, with all His might Carried the loads with delight. He never asked for any help Nor asked the Father with complaints. We must repent with our sins And share the heavy loads with Him. It·s sad that we have never thought About the glory that He brought The agonies and pains that He had showed The life He offered on the cross. Is it not time for us to think That we should share what life can bring For in this world of miseries Eternal life is there to meet. Be humble and be happy now All we must do is pray somehow Thank Him though you·re torn and tossed Count your blessings not your loss. Go on with life of heavy loads Call onto Him, be brave and strong Believe His name with faith and hope Remember the old rugged cross.
