[Verse]
C
Two thousand years ago
F C
Outside the Eastern Gate
They led Jesus to Gagothus Hill
G
He went there in my place
F
Across his scarred and beaten back
C F
A world of sin was tossed
C
They nailed him to that rugged tree
G C
F C
That old rugged hill became a battle field
G C
Where the world, for the souls of men, was fought
F
And as the battle raged
C F
death Hell in the grave, they lost
C G C
And Vic... tory hung... where the timbers cross
C
The earth was black as midnight
F C
And beneath the darken sky
G
Forsaken for a debt not his, our Lord was crucified
F C F
And through his bitter anguish he counted not the cost
C
He paid the price for you and me
G C
Where the timbers cross
F C
That old rugged hill became a battle field
G C
Where the world, for the souls of men, was fought
F
And as the battle raged
C F
death Hell in the grave, they lost
C G C
And Vic... tory hung... where the timbers cross
C
Jesus shed his blood for you and me
G C
Where the timbers cross
