Lyrics

O ye who have wan­dered in sor­row away,
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry;
A par­don to sin­ners
Is of­fered to­day;
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry.

Refrain

There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry,
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry;
A par­don of love from the Fa­ther above,
A par­don on Cal­va­ry.

Since Je­sus has died on the cross for us all,
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry;
Your hearts can be cleansed
If you come at His call;
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry.

Refrain

His hand is held out in com­pass­ion to you,
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry;
Your long wast­ed lives
He in love will re­new;
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry.

Refrain

O hast­en to lay all your sin at His feet,
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry;
Come now and ac­cept
His re­demp­tion com­plete;
There’s par­don on Cal­va­ry.
