Rude Cruz

Rude cross was erected
From it the day fled
As a sign of shame and pain
But I love that cross
On which my Jesus
Gave his life for me, a sinner

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross
Until I exchange it for a crown

From the glory of Heaven
The Lamb of God
Descended to the humiliating Calvary
And this cross has for me
Endless attractions
For Jesus redeemed me on it

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross
Until I exchange it for a crown

Here with Jesus
The shame of the cross
I always want to bear and suffer
He will come to take me
And with Him, in the home
I will have a part in glory

Yes, I love the message of the cross
Until I die, I will proclaim it
I will also carry my cross
Until I exchange it for a crown
