On Calvary (Earl)

Oh

soft­ly whis­per Je­sus’ name!

For me to this dark earth He came;

His er­rand one of love di­vine

To save this sin­ful soul of mine.

He gave His life

His life for me

On Cal­va­ry! On Cal­va­ry!

His er­rand one of love di­vine

To save this sin­ful soul of mine.

Oh

loud­ly ec­ho Je­sus’ name!

Above all those of earth­ly fame;

He dwells on high

with pow­er to save

The black­est soul from death’s dark grave.

Oh

shout the name

in ju­bi­lant strain

Then ring it o’er and o’er again

Till all man­kind shall bow the knee

And say

My king! I’ll live for Thee.
