Hymn 177: Jesus was slain for me,

Verse 1

Jesus was slain for me,

At Calvary

Crowned with thorns was He,

At Calvary,

There He in anguish died,

There from His opened side,

Poured forth the crimson tide,

At Calvary.


Verse 2

Pardoned is all my sin,

At Calvary,

Cleansed is my heart within,

At Calvary,

Now robes of praise I wear.

Gone are my brief and care,

Christ bore my burdens there,

At Calvary.


Verse 3

Wondrous His love for me,

At Calvary,

Glorious His victory, At Calvary,

Vanquished are death and hell,

Oh, let His praises swell,

Ever my tongue shall tell

Of Calvary.
