There is a dear and hallowed spot
1
There is a dear and hallowed spot,Oft present to my eye;By saints it ne'er can be forgot—That place is Calvary.
2
O, what a scene was there displayed,Of love and agony,When our Redeemer bowed his head,And died on Calvary!
3
When fainting under guilt's dread load,Unto the cross I'll fly,And trust the merits of the bloodThat flowed at Calvary.
4
Whene'er I feel temptation's power,On Jesus I'll rely,And in the sharp, conflicting hour,Repair to Calvary.
