Lead Me to Calvary

407 Lead Me to Calvary

1 King of my life I crown Thee now -
   Thine shall the glory be;
   Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,
   Lead me to Calvary.

Refrain:
   Lest I forget Gethsemane,
   Lest I forget Thine agony,
   Lest I forget Thy love for me,
   Lead me to Calvary.

2 Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid,
   Tenderly mourned and wept;
   Angels in robes of light arrayed
   Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept. [Refrain]

3 Let me like Mary, thru the gloom,
   Come with a gift to Thee;
   Show to me now the empty tomb -
   Lead me to Calvary. [Refrain]

4 May I be willing, Lord, to bear
   Daily my cross for Thee;
   Even Thy cup of grief to share -
   Thou hast borne all for me. [Refrain]
