‘Hark! 'tis Love and Mercy calling,
In the sounds from Calvary;
See the tears of pity, falling
In the blood that bathes the tree.
In the sounds from Calvary;
See the tears of pity, falling
In the blood that bathes the tree.
‘It is finished! hear him crying;
With the faint, departing breath,
Who, to save a world, is dying,
Thus for us to conquer death.
With the faint, departing breath,
Who, to save a world, is dying,
Thus for us to conquer death.
‘Lo! the great High Priest is bending
With the sacrifice for sin,
That the temple's vail is rending,
As he bows and enters in.’
With the sacrifice for sin,
That the temple's vail is rending,
As he bows and enters in.’
