Lyrics
Chorus
I believe in a hill called Mount Calv'ry, I'll believe whatever the cost; And when time is surrendered and earth is no more, I'll still cling to that old rugged cross.
Verse 1
There are things as we travel thru earth's shifting sands That transcend all the reason of man; But the things that matter the most in this world, They can never be held in our hand.
Verse 2
I believe that the Christ who was slain on that cross Has the power to change lives today; For He changed me completely, a new life is mine, That is why by the cross I will stay.
Verse 3
I believe that this life with it's great mysteries Surely someday will come to an end; But the faith will conquer the darkness and death And will lead me at last to my Friend.
