By Request, ‘The Old Rugged Cross’

I used to cry when we sang this hymn, way back in Sunday school. It still does stir my soul: requested by Phoebe, sung here by Alan Jackson, The Old Rugged Cross.

This hymn used to make me cry when I was a boy in Sunday school. I guess I wasn’t the only one, because no one made fun of me.

Requested by Phoebe, sung by the Martin Brothers–The Old Rugged Cross.

Requested by Ina, Loretta Lynn sings The Old Rugged Cross. I used to have to hide my tears when we sang this in Sunday school. But I would not hide them anymore.

‘The Old Rugged Cross’

When Our Lord Jesus Christ was nailed to the cross, and died, and thrust into a tomb, Satan must have thought, “I’ve thrown everything I have at Them… and I have won!”

But we now know that the cross and the tomb were not the end of it. They were only the beginning.

Hymn: The Old Rugged Cross, sung by Alan Jackson.

No hymn requests have come in today, I’m on my own. This was the first one that came to mind–The Old Rugged Cross, sung by Johnny Cash. It used to choke me up, when I was a boy and we sang it in Sunday school. Sometimes it still does.

This one’s for Phoebe, who’s feeling somewhat less than tip-top today (prayers are in order)–The Old Rugged Cross, sung by Alan Jackson.

I used to choke up when we sang this hymn in Sunday school. Sometimes I still do… and I give the Father thanks for that.

This hymn used to make me cry in Sunday school. Sixty-plus years later, it still brings tears.

Requested by Thewhiterabbit: The Old Rugged Cross, sung by Alan Jackson. I’ve always found this hymn deeply moving. Well, Lent is coming soon, and after that, Easter. The Resurrection. Be ready to rejoice.

We’re still doing Christmas hymns; but we’re posting hymns for all seasons, too.

Thank you, Phoebe, for requesting this: The Old Rugged Cross, sung by Alan Jackson. Used to bring tears to my eyes when we sang it in Sunday school. And it still does.

Oops! I don’t have time to do any interspersing–gotta get to the supermarket before the next thunderstorm starts. But I do have time for the next hymn in our hymn contest.

Requested by Phoebe, The Old Rugged Cross–and I chose a rendition by Alan Jackson. If this hymn doesn’t move you, better check and see if you can fog a mirror.
