Representative Text

1 There is a place to which we turn,
When we the love of God would learn,
There we our sinfulness discern,
The place Called Calvary.

Refrain:
Calvary, Calvary,
The place Called Calvary;
Where died the Son of God for aye,—
The place Called Calvary.

2 There righteousness and mercy met,
There dying love doth love beget,
Our grateful hearts can ne’er forget
The place Called Calvary. [Refrain]

3 It is the fount from which there flows,
The healing stream for earthly woes,
No spot can e’er such love disclose,
The place Called Calvary. [Refrain]

4 There sin was on our Surety laid,
God’s wondrous grace to man displayed,
And Christ our substitute was made,
The place Called Calvary. [Refrain]

5 Upon that death our hopes are built,
For He whose precious blood was spilt,
Tho’ innocent there bore our guilt,
The place Called Calvary. [Refrain]
