Coming To Calvary

Tune: Horsley

(\'There is a green hill far away\')

Luke 23 v.33-43 parts

********

Green hill though far, we not forget

But we remember yet

Of Calvary\'s days, where Jesus

Was crucified for us

 

He prayed, Father, forgive, for they

Know not their deeds this day

What they do, putting Christ to death

\'Til he drew final breath

 

But a thief penitent there too

Said, Jesus, Lord, please do

Remember me when you do come

To your kingdom, your home

 

Jesus said, Truly this day you

Shall be so, it is true

With me in paradise, saved sure

Set free for evermore

 

He suffered, died, then rose again

The Saviour of all men* (*mankind)

May we journey with him, some sort

E\'en if a passing thought
