Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #332 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Come, O my soul, to Calvary, Calvary, Calvary,
And see the Man who died for thee,
Upon th' accursed tree.
Chorus:
How can I forget thee!
How can I forget my Lord!
How can I forget thee!
Dear Lord, remember me.
2 Behold the Saviour's agony
While groaning in Gethsemane
Beneath the sins of men.
3 With purple robe and thorny crown,
And mocking soldiers bowing down,
The Saviour bears my shame.
4 Behold, they shed his precious blood!
O, hear him cry, "My God, my God,
Hast thou forsaken me?"
5 He died! the earth was robed in gloom!
They laid him then in Joseph's tomb,
While soldiers watched around.
6 But in the light of dawning day
Bright angels rolled the rock away,
And Christ, the Conqueror, rose.
7 Now he who died on Calvary
Still lives to plead for you and me
And bids us look and live.
8 Soon he who once was scourged and bound
Shall come again, with glory crowned,
And reign forevermore.
9 His saints shall crown him Lord of all;
Before him every foe shall fall,
And every knee shall bow. Topics: Christ Sufferings and Death Tune Title: CALVARY
