Lyrics
AT CALVARY
Words by William R. Newell, Elisha A. Hoffman, and Mark S. Crocker
Music by Mark S. Crocker
VS 1 Years I spent in vanity and pride,
Caring not my Lord was crucified.
Knowing not it was for me He died
On Calvary.
By God's Word at last my sin I learned;
Then I trembled at the law I'd spurned
'Til my guilty soul imploring turned
To Calvary.
CH Mercy there was great and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found liberty
At Calvary. At Calvary.
VS 2 Now I've given to Jesus everything;
Now I gladly serve Him as my King;
Now my raptured soul can only sing
Of Calvary.
O the love that drew Salvation's plan;
O the grace that brought it down to man;
O the mighty gulf that God did span
At Calvary.
CH Mercy there was great and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found liberty
At Calvary. At Calvary.
BR Jesus, my Savior, became my shame;
For sinners lost He was slain;
Pardoned us all and sanctified me
He bore it all on Calvary.
VS 3 At the cross where my Savior died,
Where for cleansing from sin I cried;
To my heart was the blood applied
At Calvary.
I am so wondrously saved from sin,
Jesus so sweetly abides within;
There at the cross where He took me in
At Calvary.
At Calvary.
At Calvary.
At Calvary.
