On The Cross Of Calvary Ives / Gerig On the cross of Calvary, Bearing the shame and agony, Jesus paid sin's penalty, That fallen man might be free. But death and hell could not hold Him prey; He rose triumphant - glorious day! Soon He's coming back again In power and glory to reign. From the cross of Calvary Shineth the Light of Life so free. Sinner, "Look and live," saith He; Pardon is offered to thee. Why will you perish? He took your place - Cancelled the debt for Adam's race. Mercy's door is still ajar; Come to Him just as you are.
