1. On Calvary's brow . . my Saviour died, . .
‘Twas there my Lord . . was cruci-fied : . .
'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 1 blest Calvary !
'Twas there my Saviour died for me.
2 ‘Mid rending rocks . . and darkening skies, . .
My Saviour bows . . His head and dies; . .
The opening vail . . reveals the way . .
To heaven's joys . . and endless day.
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!
