The Old Rugged Cross
Here's a piano arrangement of George Bennard's gospel hymn "The Old Rugged Cross" (aka "On a Hill Far Away"). It is written in a gospel style with a gentle swing beat. Throughout this arrangement the right hand plays melody with harmony, while the left hand alternates between broken patterns and octave-chord jumps. This piano arrangement is suitable for prelude, offertory or postlude on Good Friday during Holy Week or any other service throughout the year when we commemorate the sacrifice of our Lord on the cross (such as communion Sunday).

CLIENT REVIEW:
"This is the most beautiful version of The Old Rugged Cross that I've ever heard or played. I purchased the sheet music and played it this past week at church and got SO many compliments. Sometimes this beloved old hymn can get a little yowl'ey but this arrangement is top shelf! Thank you for arranging it, for posting it, and for making the sheet music available!" – Clara
