Text: | Calvary Conquered My Heart |
Author: | John W. Peterson |
Tune: | [I was a rebel and stranger from God] |
Composer: | John W. Peterson |
1 I was a rebel and stranger from God,
Willful and selfish the path that I trod;
Carelessly walking sin’s highway so broad
When Calvary conquered my heart!
Refrain:
Calvary conquered my heart!
Calvary conquered my heart!
When I gazed at the tree,
Saw Christ dying for me
Then Calvary conquered my heart!
2 Just to behold him—my Saviour so fair—
Bleeding and dying in agony there,
Knowing my sin in Himself He did bear
Made Calvary conquer my heart. [Refrain]
3 Now He has won me—I’m His evermore
Gladly I’ll worship Him—love and adore;
Here on earth’s journey to Heaven’s bright shore
For Calvary conquered my heart! [Refrain]
