On Calvary’s Brow My Savior Died,
’Twas There My Lord Was Crucified;
’Twas On The Cross He Bled For Me,
And Purchased There My Pardon Free.
O Calvary! Dark Calvary!
Where Jesus Shed His Blood For Me;
O Calvary! Blest Calvary!
’Twas There My Savior Died For Me.
’Mid Rending Rocks And Darkening Skies,
My Savior Bows His Head And Dies;
The Opening Veil Reveals The Way
To Heaven’s Joys And Endless Day.
O Jesus, Lord, How Can It Be
That Thou Shouldst Give Thy Life For Me,
To Bear The Cross And Agony
In That Dread Hour On Calvary!
