Text:Look up to Calvary

63. Look up to Calvary

1 Look up to Calvary, look up to Calvary.
Behold your Saviour, a hanging there
And He died for you and me,
Children, He died for you and me.

2 And Joseph took him down,
And Joseph took him down,
And he wrapped His mangled body up
And he laid it in His own new tomb,
Children, he laid it in His own new tomb.

3 And the Soldiers they did watch,
And the Soldiers they did watch,
And they watched until about the break of day,
And the stone was rolled away,
Children, the stone was rolled away.

4 And the Saviour, He arose,
And the Saviour, He arose,
He arose for you and He arose for me,
And He went to Galilee,
Children, He went to Galilee.

5 But He will come again,
But He will come again,
A riding upon a fiery cloud
And He will forever reign
Children, He will forever reign.
