I'm ashamed of the years that I've wasted
Ashamed of the failurs and loss
But since Jesus came and forgave my sins
I'm not ashamed of the old rugged cross
Not ashamed of the old rugged cross
Not ashamed of my Savior's great cost
With His blood He paid the price
Through His death He gave me life
I'm not ashamed of the old rugged cross
Many who claim to be Christians
Seldom mention the Lord
But if they're truly saved and Christ lives within
They're not ashamed of the old rugged cross
Not ashamed of the old rugged cross
Not ashamed of my Savior's great cost
With His blood He paid the price
Through His death He gave me life
I'm not ashamed of the old rugged cross
