Original

The strophic setting for The Old Rugged Cross has been given some variety in this arrangement, modulating midway from C to A flat and then back for the final verse. Evangelical song-leader George Bennard wrote The Old Rugged Cross in 1912 during a series of church meetings. It was popularized a few years later by the Billy Sunday evangelistic campaigns and since then has been a church and country gospel favourite, having been recorded by artists as diverse as Johnny Cash, Rahsaan Roland Kirk and Al Green.

Skrev evangelisk sang-leder George Bennard The Old Rugged Cross i 1912 under en rekke kirkemøter. Det ble popularisert noen år senere av Billy søndag evangeliske kampanjer og siden da har vært en kirke og country gospel favoritt, etter å ha blitt spilt inn av artister så forskjellige som Johnny Cash, Rahsaan Roland Kirk og Al Grønn.
