At Calvary

415 At Calvary

1 Years I spent in vanity and pride,
   Caring not my Lord was crucified,
   Knowing not it was for me He died on Calvary.

Refrain:
   Mercy there was great and grace was free,
   Pardon there was multiplied to me,
   There my burdened soul found liberty–
   At Calvary.

2 By God's Word at last my sin I learned–
   Then I trembled at the Law I'd spurned,
   Till my guilty soul imploring turned to Calvary. [Refrain]

3 Now I've giv'n to Jesus ev'rything,
   Now I gladly own Him as my King,
   Now my raptured soul can only sing of Calvary. [Refrain]

4 O the love that drew salvation's plan!
   O the grace that brought it down to man!
   O the mighty gulf that God did span at Calvary. [Refrain]
