The Old Rugged Cross Made the Difference |
'Twas a life filled with aimless desperation |
Without hope walked the shell of a man; |
Then a hand with a nailprint stretched downward |
Just one touch then a new life began |
And the old rugged cross made the difference |
In a life bound for heartache and defeat; |
I will praise Him forever and ever |
For the cross made the difference for me |
Barren walls echoed harshness and anger |
Little faces ran in terror to hide; |
Now those walls ring with love, warmth and laughter |
Since the giver of life moved inside |
Repeat Chorus |
There’s a room filled with sad, ashen faces |
Without hope death has wrapped them in gloom; |
But at the side of a saint there’s rejoicing |
For life can’t be sealed in a tomb |
Repeat Chorus |
