i stood one day

I stood one day at Calvary

where Jesus bled and died,

I never knew He loved me so,

for me was crucified;

and as I stood there in my sin,

His love reached down to me,

and O the shame that filled my soul

that day at Calvary!




I knelt one day at Calvary;

my eyes were filled with tears

to think such love I had refused

through all these wasted years;

and as I knelt I heard Him say,

‘I did it all for thee,’

and O the love that filled my soul

that day at Calvary!




I prayed one day at Calvary,

‘I‟m Thine for evermore!

Forgive me, Lord, for all my sin;

my lost estate restore!’

And as I prayed, to me He gave

salvation full and free,

and O the peace that filled my soul

that day at Calvary! ......
