blessed redeemer...

Up Calvary’s mountain one dreadful morn
Walked Christ my Savior, weary and worn
Facing for sinners death on the cross
That He might save them from endless loss

Blessed Redeemer, precious Redeemer
Seems now I see Him on Calvary’s tree
Wounded and bleeding, for sinners pleading
Blind and unheeding, dying for me

“Father, forgive them,” my Savior prayed
Even while His lifeblood flowed fast away
Praying for sinners while in such woe
No one but Jesus ever loved so

Jesus, I thanks for the cross
Thank you for your redemptive blood,
Painful and all alone, for my soul
That one day we might meet again

The most glorious day, that one Sunday
He rose up from death, to show us his way
Beautiful and holy, came back for me
Overcame death to free me of sin

Up Calvary’s mountain one dreadful morn
Walked Christ my Savior, weary and worn
Facing for sinners death on the cross
That He might save them from endless loss
