Oh, how dark the night
That wrapped my spi­rit round!
Oh, how deep the woe my Sav­ior found
When He walked across the wa­ters of my soul,
Bade my night dis­perse and made me whole.

Refrain

All the way to Cal­va­ry He went for me,
He went for me, He went for me;
All the way to Cal­va­ry He went for me,
He died to set me free.

Tremblingly a sin­ner bowed be­fore His face,
Naught I knew of par­don, God’s free grace;
Heard a voice so melt­ing, Cease thy wild re­gret,
Jesus bought thy par­don, paid thy debt.

Refrain

Oh, ’twas won­drous love
The Sav­ior showed for me,
When He left His throne for Cal­va­ry,
When He trod the wine press, trod it all alone,
Praise His name for­ev­er, make it known.

Refrain
