Before salvation in a far and distant land
Two rusty nails pierced to precious hands
There a man named Jesus
For silver was sold
On an old rugged cross
The great love story was told
Oh, oh what a story
I love you was written in blood
Rivers of mercy were flowing
Between two thieves was the son
Oh the ransom was paid
For everyman’s soul
On an old rugged cross
The great love story was told
He cried it is finished
And the world heard the sound
Marking the beginning
As his blood touched the ground
The master plan for living
On mount calvary was made
Such expression of love
Is salvation today
Oh the ransom was paid
For everyman’s soul
On an old rugged cross
The great love story was told
