The New Praiseworthy ‎#214

214. Look Away to Calvary

1 When mourning oft your load of guilt,
When free from sin you long to be,
Just rest your soul on Jesus' love-
Look away to Calvary!

Chorus:
O wonderful, O glorious Calvary!
O wondrous fountain, flowing free!
'Twill cleanse your heart from ev'ry stain of sin;
Look away to Calvary!

2 A broken heart for sacrifice,
Bring to the Lord, whose grace is free;
His blood can cleanse each crimson stain;
Look away to Calvary! [Chorus]

3 His saving power you shall know,
Who waits for you so patiently;
Fear not to trust this Friend divine;
Look away to Calvary! [Chorus]
