“Lead Me to Calvary”

The lyrics of this old hymn have helped me gain perspective many days and again today:

“Lead Me To Calvary”

King of my life, I crown Thee now,
Thine shall the glory be;
 Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,
 Lead me to Calvary.

Refrain:


Lest I forget Gethsemane,
 Lest I forget Thine agony;
 Lest I forget Thy love for me,
 Lead me to Calvary.

Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid,
Tenderly mourned and wept;
 Angels in robes of light arrayed 
Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept.

Let me like Mary, through the gloom,
 Come with a gift to Thee;
 Show to me now the empty tomb,
 Lead me to Calvary.

May I be willing, Lord, to bear
 Daily my cross for Thee;
 Even Thy cup of grief to share,
Thou hast borne all for me.

“Ears Wide Open… Listening…”

Pastor Kerry Willis
