[G]Years I spent in vanity and pride, [G]caring not my Lord was crucified
Knowing [C]not it was for me He died, at Calvary [G]
[G]By God’s Word at last my sin I learned, [G]then I trembled at the law I’d spurned
‘Til my [C]guilty soul, imploring, turned, to [G]Calvary


[G]There Your mercy and Your grace was free, [Em]there Your pardon multiplied to [C]me
[Em]There my burdened soul found [D]liberty, at [C]Calvary


[G]Now I’ve given Jesus everything, [G]now I gladly know Him as my King
Now my [C]raptured soul can only sing, of Calvary [G]


[G]There Your mercy and Your grace was free, [Em]there Your pardon multiplied to [C]me
[Em]There my burdened soul found [D]liberty, at [C]Calvary


[G]Oh the love that drew salvation’s plan, [G]oh the grace that brought it down to man
Oh the [C]mighty gulf that God did span, at [G]Calvary
