1 Up Calv’ry’s mountain one dreadful morn,
Walked Christ my Savior, weary and worn;
Facing for sinners death on the cross,
That He might save them from endless loss.
Refrain:
Blessed Redeemer!
Precious Redeemer!
Seems now I see Him on Calvary’s tree;
Wounded, despised, yet for sinners pleading,
Blind and unheeding, dying for me.
2 “Father, forgive them!” thus did He pray,
E’en while His life blood flowed fast away.
Praying for sinners while in such woe;
No one but Jesus ever loved so. [Refrain]
3 O how I love Him, Savior and Friend,
How can my praises ever find end!
Thro’ years unnumbered on heaven’s shore,
My tongue shall praise Him forevermore. [Refrain]
