Oh, how dark the night
that wrapt my spirit round!
Oh, how deep the woe my Saviour found
When His blessèd sunshine
flooded all my soul,
Bade the darkness vanish: made me whole!
All the way to Calvary
He went for me,
He went for me,
He went for me;
All the way to Calvary
He went for me,
He died to set me free.
Tremblingly a sinner bowed before His face,
Naught I knew of pardon nor His grace;
Heard a voice so tender:
“Cease thy wild regret—
I have bought thy pardon, paid the debt.”
All the way to Calvary
He went for me,
He went for me,
He went for me;
All the way to Calvary
He went for me,
He died to set me free.
Oh, ‘twas wondrous love
the Saviour showed for me,
When He left His throne for Calvary,
When He trod the winepress,
trod it all alone:
Praise His name for ever—make it known.
All the way to Calvary
He went for me,
He went for me,
He went for me;
All the way to Calvary
He went for me,
He died to set me free.
