The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;

And exchange it some day for a crown.

Has a wondrous attraction for me;
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary.

Its shame and reproach gladly bear;
Then He’ll call me some day to my home far away,
Where His glory forever I’ll share.

emblema de afrenta y dolor;

por salvar al más vil pecador.

EN SUS TRIUNFOS MI GLORIA SERÁ;
Y ALGÚN DÍA EN VEZ DE UNA CRUZ,

Pues en ella llevó el Cordero de Dios
de mi alma la condenación.

Y algún día feliz con los santos en luz
para siempre Su gloria veré.

The Old Rugged Cross Christian Background Music then for French

1. Sur une colline au loin se trouvait une vieille croix rustique,
L’emblème de la souffrance et la honte;
Et j’aime cette vieille croix où les meilleurs et les plus chers
Pour un monde de pécheurs perdus ont péri.

Chorus:
Alors je chérirai la vieille croix rustique,
Mon trophées jusqu’à mon dernier souffle
Je m’agripperai à la vieille croix rustique,
Et l’échangerai un jour pour une couronne.

2. O vieille croix rustique, si méprisé par le monde,
Qui a une attraction merveilleuse pour moi;
Pour ce cher Agneau de Dieu qui a laissé sa gloire en haut
Pour la porter sur le Calvaire obscur.

3. Sur cette vieille croix rustique, tachées de sang si divin,
que je vois comme une merveilleuse beauté,
Car c’était sur cette vieille croix que Jésus a souffert et est mort,
Pour me pardonner et de me consacrer.

4. Pour la vieille croix rustique je serai toujours vrai;
Sa honte, ses reproches, je les porte volontiers;
Puis dans ma maison lointaine il m’appellera un jour,
Pour que je partage à jamais sa gloire.

The Old Rugged Cross Christian Background Music then for Chinese

1
各 各 他 山 岭 上, 孤 立 一 十 字 架
On a hill far away, stood an old rugged cross
这 是 羞 辱 痛 苦 记 号
The emblem of suffering and shame
神 爱 子 主 耶 稣,
And I love that old cross
为 世 人 被 钉 死
where the dearest and best
这 十架 为 我 最 爱 最 宝
For a world of lost sinners was slain

Chorus:
故 我 爱 高 举 十 字 宝 架
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross
直 到 在 主 台 前 见 主 面
Till my trophies at last I lay down
我 一 生 要 背 负 十 字 架
I will cling to the old rugged cross
此 十 架 可 换 公 义 冠 冕
And exchange it some day for a crown

2
主 宝 贵 十 字 架, 乃 世 人 所 轻 视
On the old rugged cross, so despised by the world
以 我 却 是 真 神 仁 慈
Has a wondrous attraction for me
神 爱 子 主 基 督
For the dear lamb of God
离 天 堂 众 荣 华
Left His glory above
甘 愿 为 世 人 背 此 苦 架
To bear it to dark calvary

Therefore, additional Translations may be found at:

• Lyrics Translate. – In short, it is made up of a community of volunteers that help translate music.
• All The Lyrics. – Notably more main stream music instead of Religious. Then again, you might get lucky.
• Google Translate. Significantly the most powerful translation software on the market. However, it focuses on translating the meaning, not fitting into the melody.

You may also consider these Christian Presentation Software’s:

• Easy Worship. Obviously, like it’s name, it is very easy to use. However because of the ease of use there are limitations. Therefore it is good for someone starting out.
• Pro Presenter. To summarize, this software is the most used. Then not as easy to use as Easy Worship. However, not as many features as Media Shout.
• Media Shout. As a result of having the most features, a lot of training is required. However it has a powerful multi screen setup that allows for different presentations on different screens.

Then again, If you are looking for a specific hymn. Or you therefore want to change the lyrics on the Singalong. Despite your needs, we can make corrections for the most part free of charge.
