Mercy There Was Great

Years i spent in vanity and pride,
Caring not my lord was crucified,
Knowing not it was for me he died
On calvary.

####chorus:

Mercy there was great
And grace was free,
Pardon there was multiplied to me,
There my burdened soul
Found liberty,
At calvary.

By god's word at last
My sin i learned,
Then i trembled
At the law i'd spurned,
Till my guilty soul,
Imploring turned
To calvary.

####

Now i've given to jesus everything,
Now i gladly own him as my king,
Now my raptured soul can only sing
Of calvary.

####

Oh! the love that
Drew salvation's plan,
Oh! the grace that
Brought it down to man,
Oh! the mighty gulf
That god did span
At calvary.
