In the bible I read about the day That the lamb of God was led away They took my Lord up the blood-stained road Where one day he washed my sins away And I thank God for Calvary For it was there Jesus died for me He took all my sins upon Himself He went to Calvary for me When I read it, it smote my heart It showed me that in heaven I have no part To the Lord I confess my sinfulness And when he saved me it was just the start And I thank God for Calvary For it was there Jesus died for me He took all my sins upon Himself He went to Calvary for me Since that day all things are new And much more I see the bible's true I know that I am made whole because He saved my soul And if you ask He'll do the same for you And I thank God for Calvary For it was there Jesus died for me He took all my sins upon Himself He went to Calvary for me He went to Calvary for me
