O ’twas wondrous love the Savior showed for me!
When He left His throne for Calvary,
Shrinking not, enduring suff’ring, poverty,
Hardship on His pathway—all for me!
When He left His throne for Calvary,
Shrinking not, enduring suff’ring, poverty,
Hardship on His pathway—all for me!
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,
To save, give life to me.
He went for me, He went for me,
All the way to Calvary He went for me,
To save, give life to me.

O what painful sight! My Savior on the tree,
Thorn-crowned head, and nail wounds borne for me;
Gashes from the flogging, blood-streams flowing free;
Pain He tasted, out of love for me!
Thorn-crowned head, and nail wounds borne for me;
Gashes from the flogging, blood-streams flowing free;
Pain He tasted, out of love for me!
Suffering at Calvary in love for me,
In love for me, in love for me;
Suffering at Calvary in love for me,
From bonds He set me free!
In love for me, in love for me;
Suffering at Calvary in love for me,
From bonds He set me free!

O how dark the earth! God’s judgment man could see;
Holy wrath, as fire, raged mightily!
Righteousness slew Him who bore my sins for me;
He received the punishment for me.
Holy wrath, as fire, raged mightily!
Righteousness slew Him who bore my sins for me;
He received the punishment for me.
Crucified at Calvary instead of me,
Instead of me, instead of me;
Crucified at Calvary instead of me,
My sins He bore for me!
Instead of me, instead of me;
Crucified at Calvary instead of me,
My sins He bore for me!

Once a trembling sinner, ignorant of grace,
Now I’ve seen His side pierced in my place,
Heard, “My blood, to purchase your forgiveness, streamed”;
Now I know His death has me redeemed!
Now I’ve seen His side pierced in my place,
Heard, “My blood, to purchase your forgiveness, streamed”;
Now I know His death has me redeemed!
Shedding blood at Calvary, redeeming me!
Redeeming me! Redeeming me!
Shedding blood at Calvary, redeeming me,
From woe He set me free!
Redeeming me! Redeeming me!
Shedding blood at Calvary, redeeming me,
From woe He set me free!
