Description
"The Old Rugged Cross," written and composed by George Bennard in 1913, is one of the most resonant hymns about the cross in Christian history. Bennard wrote this piece while deeply meditating on the true meaning of Jesus Christ's cross during a time of struggle early in his ministry. The rugged wooden cross symbolizes the Lord's sacrifice, while the resulting salvation represents eternal life for us. Since the early 1900s in the United States, this hymn has spread worldwide, opening the eyes of countless believers to gaze upon the cross. In the Korean church, it remains a quintessential song that best expresses the essence of the Gospel, frequently sung during Passion Week and dedication services. Singing of the paradoxical grace where the rough cross became life for us, it conveys a solemn yet warm calling to live by the values of the cross. As we meditate on the cross in our daily lives in 2026, we experience comfort and victory that the world cannot provide. This hymn stands as an eternal milestone for those who resolve to walk the path of the cross.
I have created this score in response to requests for a B-key version of the MR track I previously produced. This is a 3-stave sheet music arrangement for vocal solo with piano accompaniment, arranged in the key of B (original is Bb). Thank you for your continued support for "The Old Rugged Cross" MR. Please note that the video is in Bb.
Although I proofread these scores multiple times, small errors can occasionally occur. If you find any issues, please let me know, and I will correct them immediately.
