Representative Text

1 I can see the Savior walking
On the shores of Galilee,
Come all the way to earth from glory
To bear the cross on Calvary.

Chorus:
Calvary O Calvary
I know He died on Calvary;
Calvary dear Calvary,
For me He died on Calvary.

2 Falling in the lonely garden,
Praying there in agony,
Great drops of blood like sweat outpouring,
He tho’t of cross crown’d Calvary. [Chorus]

3 Hear Him cry, My God, my Father,
O why hast Thou forsaken me?
AS Christ our gracious Lord was dying
Upon the cross of Calvary. [Chorus]

4 Can’t you hear Him gently calling
In words of love so tenderly,
Come unto Me, for I have bo’t thee
With my own blood on Calvary? [Chorus]
