On yonder hill of Calvary,
Where Jesus bled and died for me:
‘Twas there from sin He set me free,
On Calvary, dark Calvary.
On Calvary, dark Calvary,
They nailed my Lord upon the tree—
And there He died in agony,
on Calvary, dark Calvary.
On yonder hill of calvary
Behold the world’s great tragedy:
The sun that awful hour did flee
From Calvary, dark Calvary.
On Calvary, dark Calvary,
They nailed my Lord upon the tree—
And there He died in agony,
on Calvary, dark Calvary.
On yonder hill of Calvary,
The sinner’s only hope and plea,
Christ gave Himself for such as we—
On Calvary, dark Calvary.
On Calvary, dark Calvary,
They nailed my Lord upon the tree—
And there He died in agony,
on Calvary, dark Calvary.
