Calvary lyrics

by

Doc Watson


There's a hill lone and grey
In a land far away
In a country beyond the blue sea;
Where beneath that fair sky
Went a man forth to die
For the world and for you and for me

Oh, it bowed down my heart
And the teardrops will start
When in memory all the grey hill I see;
For 'twas there on its side
Jesus suffered and died
To redeem a poor sinner like me

Behold, faint on the road
'Neath the world's heavy load
Comes a thorn-crowned man on the way;
With a cross, he is bowed
But still on through the crowd
He's ascending that hill lone and grey

Hark, I hear the dull blow
Of the hammer swung low;
They are nailing my Lord to the tree
And the cross they up-raise
While the multitude gaze
On the blessed Lamb of dark Calvary
