The Old Rugged Cross Made The Difference Lyrics - Guy Penrod

'Twas a life filled with aimless desperation 

Without hope walked the shell of a man; 

Then a hand with a nailprint stretched downward, 

Just one touch then a new life began. 

Chorus: 

And the old rugged cross made the difference 

In a life bound for heartache and defeat; 

I will praise Him forever and ever 

For the cross made the difference for me. 

Barren walls echoed harshness and anger 

Little faces ran in terror to hide; 

Now those walls ring with love, warmth and laughter, 

Since the giver of life moved inside. 

Repeat Chorus

There's a room filled with sad, ashen faces 

Without hope death has wrapped them in gloom; 

But at the side of a saint there's rejoicing, 

For life can't be sealed in a tomb.
