YEARS I spent in vanity and pride,
Caring not my Lord was crucified,
Knowing not it was for me he died
On Calvary.
2 By God?s Word at last my sin I learned,
Then I trembled at the law I?d spurned,
Till my guilty soul imploring turned
To Calvary.
3 Now I?ve given to Jesus everything,
Now I gladly own him as my King;
Now my raptured soul can only sing
Of Calvary.
4 O the love that drew salvation?s plan!
O the grace that brought it down to man!
O the mighty gulf that God did span
At Calvary!
Chorus
Mercy there was great, and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found liberty
At Calvary.
Caring not my Lord was crucified,
Knowing not it was for me he died
On Calvary.
2 By God?s Word at last my sin I learned,
Then I trembled at the law I?d spurned,
Till my guilty soul imploring turned
To Calvary.
3 Now I?ve given to Jesus everything,
Now I gladly own him as my King;
Now my raptured soul can only sing
Of Calvary.
4 O the love that drew salvation?s plan!
O the grace that brought it down to man!
O the mighty gulf that God did span
At Calvary!
Chorus
Mercy there was great, and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found liberty
At Calvary.
