Spoken:

Thank you very much.
I'd like to do this old song for ya, ladies and gentlemen
that I think is one of the most beautiful songs in the world
And one of the truest songs, too.

(Song Begins)

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross
The emblem of suffering and shame
But I love that old cross
For a world of lost sinners was slain

So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
Hallalujah! Hallalujah!
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And I'll exchange it someday for a crown

Oh that old rugged cross
You know it's so despised by the world
It has a wonderous attraction for me
Glory to God
For the dear lamb of God
He left his glory way up above
Just to bear down the dark Calvary

So I'll cherish that old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And I'll exchange it someday for a crown.

Spoken:
Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen.
The Old Rugged Cross.
I'll exchange it someday for a crown.
Glory to God, I'm lookin' forward to that day.
I can walk up them old steps and say, 'I made it'!
He'll say, 'Well done my child'.
'Crown of laude be worn'.
Ha-ha-ha

Brother, if we're not livin' for that
I don't know what we're doin'.
I'm livin' an' I'm lookin' for it.
Like that song 'while ago, I was singin'
'I'm Longing for Home'

Neighbors
I've been saved now for two and a half weeks
Well, two weeks and five days to be exact.
And I wouldn't trade what I got now
For all the night clubs in Las Vegas
For all the money in the world.

 Fight the greed!

(Applause)

I wouldn't do it.
It'll be worth it all.
It'll be worth it all to see, Jesus.
Hallelujah!

I'm tellin' you this.
I'm very serious about this thing.
When I do something, I do it.
Glory to God! I do it.
In fact I think I'll just sing a little bit
Of that song right now.
