Calvary

You saw broken humanity And so You sent Your Son To redeem the souls of men and to Take back what evil'd won He came to earth a baby And He grew into a man And the sinless life He'd led prepared Him For His mighty stand And when He stood before the crowd Beaten and despised It was then, when Satan thought he'd won That Jesus raised His eyes, and He saw, Calvary, Calvary The blood of the Saviour there was shed for me Calvary, oh Calvary The lamb of God has died to set me free On Calvary They whipped Him and they beat Him But like flint He set His face As He chose to see His mission through And to bear shame and disgrace They laid Him on a cruel cross And drove the nails home In excruciating pain He'd never Felt so all alone And when Jesus yielded up His life And cried out, it is done Satan thought that he had triumphed But the Son of God had won, on Calvary, Calvary The blood of the Saviour there was shed for me Calvary, oh Calvary The lamb of God has died to set me free On Calvary Three days of darkness in a tomb He laid As all creation held its breath The resurrected Jesus Christ exploded from the tomb Coz the lamb of God had conquered sin and death He's Alive Calvary, Calvary The blood of the Saviour there was shed for me Calvary, oh Calvary His sacrificial love has set me free On Calvary
