Words by Avis B. Christiansen Music by Lance B. Latham Quartet version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWeJxtpJWPg [Verse 1]
G                        C    G
I look at the cross upon Calvary,

                        D  G  D7
And oh, what a wonder divine,

   G            B7        C         A7
To think of the wealth it holds for me—

    G         D7         G
The riches of Heaven are mine.
[Refrain]
G
Bless-ed Calvary! Precious Calvary!

                             D7  G  D
’Neath thy shadow I’ll ever abide.

G
Bless-ed Calvary! Precious Calvary!

      D7                       G
’Twas there Jesus suffered and died.
[Verse 2]
G                            C    G
I find at the cross bless-ed victory,

                              D  G  D7
And grace for each step of my way.

    G              B7      C       A7
The fount of God’s love is flowing free,

    G          D7           G
And sweeter it grows day by day.
[Refrain]
G
Bless-ed Calvary! Precious Calvary!

                             D7  G  D
’Neath thy shadow I’ll ever abide.

G
Bless-ed Calvary! Precious Calvary!

      D7                       G
’Twas there Jesus suffered and died.
[Verse 3]
G                         C    G
The cross is my hope for eternity,

                      D  G  D7
No merit have I of my own;

    G             B7        C    A7
The shed blood of Christ my only plea—

   G           D7     G
My trust is in Jesus alone.
[Refrain]
G
Bless-ed Calvary! Precious Calvary!

                             D7  G  D
’Neath thy shadow I’ll ever abide.

G
Bless-ed Calvary! Precious Calvary!

      D7                       G
’Twas there Jesus suffered and died.
