       Verse One:

      That rugged cross of long ago....
      Where Jesus bled and died...
      Became a sacred symbol...of hope and truth and right....
      Where there is no cross...there can be no liberty...
      For sin will build a prison...
      And men cannot go free...

       The Chorus:

      ALL ACROSS THIS COUNTRY.....
      THIS OLD COUNTRY NEEDS THE CROSS....
      THE CHRISTIAN FAITH...THAT MADE IT GREAT......
      MUST SOMEHOW NOT BE LOST...

      "ONE NATION UNDER GOD"....
      IS A TRUTH NO LONGER TAUGHT....
      AND, ALL ACROSS THIS COUNTRY......
      THIS OLD COUNTRY NEEDS THE CROSS....

      [Music Channel]

      Verse Two:

      The mind of man is staggered....
      By the problems all around...
      Our leaders search for answers....that somehow can't be found....
      While we spend our millions......seeking what we've lost....
      All this country really needs.....
      Is a trip back to the cross....

      Repeat The Chorus

      ALL ACROSS THIS COUNTRY.....
      THIS OLD COUNTRY NEEDS THE CROSS....
      THE CHRISTIAN FAITH...THAT MADE IT GREAT......
      MUST SOMEHOW NOT BE LOST...

      "ONE NATION UNDER GOD"....
      IS A TRUTH NO LONGER TAUGHT....
      AND, ALL ACROSS THIS COUNTRY......
      THIS OLD COUNTRY NEEDS THE CROSS....

       Tag

      God knows across this country......
      This old country needs the cross....
