Text: | Lead Me to Calvary |
Author: | Jennie Evelyn Husseu |
Tune: | [King of my life I crown Thee now] |
Composer: | Wm. J. Kirkpatrick |
1 King of my life I crown 'thee now;
Thine shall the glory be;
Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,
Lead me to Calvary.
Refrain
Lest I forget Gethsemane,
Lest I forget Thine agony,
Lest I forget Thy love for me,
Lead me to Calvary.
2 Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid,
Tenderly mourned and wept;
Angels in robes of light arrayed
Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept. [Refrain]
3 Let me, like Mary, thro' the gloom
Come with a gift to Thee.
Show to me now the empty tomb;
Lead me to Calvary. [Refrain]
4 May I be willing, Lord to bear
Daily my cross for Thee;
Even Thy cup of grief to share.
Thou hast borne all for me [Refrain]
