Calvary

Author: Rev. B. Carradine Appears in 36 hymnals First Line: There's a hill lone and gray Refrain First Line: Oh, it bows down my heart Lyrics: 1 There’s a hill lone and gray, In a land far away, In a country beyond the blue sea, Where beneath that fair sky, Went a man forth to die For the world and for you and for me. Oh, it bows down my heart, And the tear-drops will start, When in mem’ry that gray hill I see; For ’twas there on its side Jesus suffered and died, To redeem a poor sinner like me. 2 Oh, so faint on the road, 'Neath a world’s heavy load, Comes a thorn-crowned Man on the way! With a cross He is bow’d, But still on thro’ the crowd, He’s ascending that hill lone and gray. Oh, it bows down my heart, And the tear-drops will start, When in mem’ry that gray hill I see; For ’twas there on its side Jesus suffered and died, To redeem a poor sinner like me. 3 Hark! I hear the dull blow Of the hammer swung low; They are nailing my Lord to the tree! And the cross they up-raise, While the multitude gaze On the blest Lamb of dark Calvary! Oh, it bows down my heart, And the tear-drops will start, When in mem’ry that gray hill I see; For ’twas there on its side Jesus suffered and died, To redeem a poor sinner like me. 4 How they mock Him in death To His last lab’ring breath, While His friends sadly weep o’er the way! But tho’ lonely and faint Still no word of complaint Fell from Him on the hillock of gray. Oh, it bows down my heart, And the tear-drops will start, When in mem’ry that gray hill I see; For ’twas there on its side Jesus suffered and died, To redeem a poor sinner like me. 5 Then the darkness came down, And the rocks rent around, And a cry pierc’d the sad-laden air! ’Twas the voice of our King, Who received death’s dark sting, All to save us from endless despair. Oh, it bows down my heart, And the tear-drops will start, When in mem’ry that gray hill I see; For ’twas there on its side Jesus suffered and died, To redeem a poor sinner like me. 6 Let the sun hide its face, Let the earth reel apace, Over men who their Saviour have slain! But, behold! from the sod Comes the blest Lamb of God Who was slain, but is risen again. Shout aloud, then, my soul, Let the glad tidings roll From the land to the ends of the sea! Jesus conquer’d the grave, And has risen to save The whole world, and to make us all free. Used With Tune: [There's a hill lone and gray]

[Refrain] 3 The sweetest song that earth can ever boast, Was sung when Christ was born, Yet He who walked the Galileean coast, Sometimes was sad forlorn; He left the earth to send the Holy Ghost, To guide us till that morn, They sing in heav'n a new song, Of Moses and the Lamb.
