“On a hill, on an old rugged cross, is were my Savior lay his life for me, and I often wonder, when I think that God send his son, send him to die, I can scarcely take it in, that on that cross, my burden pass away, he bleed and die, to take away all my sins, ever time I realize that, l say Lord jesus I love you, then my soul sing with worship and ask, Lord how great thou art? !!”
