Author: W. M'K. Darwood Hymnal: Reformed Press Hymnal #173 (1934) First Line: On Calv'ry's brow my Saviour died Refrain First Line: O Calvary! dark Calvary! Lyrics: 1 On Calvary's brow my Saviour died,
'Twas there my Lord was crucified;
'Twas on the cross He bled for me,
And purchased there my pardon free.
Chorus:
O Calvary! dark Calvary!
Where Jesus shed His blood for me;
O Calvary! blest Calvary!
'Twas there my Savior died for me.
2 'Mid rending rocks and darkened skies,
My Saviour bows His head and dies;
The opening veil reveals the way
To heaven's joys and endless day. [Chorus]
3 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? [Chorus]
