On the cross at
Calvary,
Jesus died for you
and me.
Bore the sins of
humankind,
God’s great mercy
thrills my mind.
Christ You hang,
arms open wide
Mercy streams flow
from Your side,
To cure the sick,
give sight to blind,
Blot out the sins
of all mankind.
Jesus Lord and
Master of all,
You pick us up
each time we fall.
No more shall we
Your love offend
To us Your wounded
hands extend.
Shield us in thy
loving embrace,
And fill us with
your heavenly grace.
For us, the
wounds You endured
By which all our
wounds are cured.
On the heights of
Calvary
In the depths of
misery
By the cross Your
Mother stood
Amidst hearts
harder than wood.
“Father, forgive
them, You prayed,
While You were by
insults sprayed.
“They do not know
what they do,”
Infinite Mercy,
thanks to You.
