Traditional Christian Hymn
Words by William R Newell
Music by Daniel B. Towner
[verse 1]
GFar dear - er than D7all that the Dworld can im - Gpart
Was the G2message that A7came to my Dheart;D7  
How that GJe - sus a - lone for my G7sin did a - Ctone
And GCalvary D7covers it Gall.
[chorus]
Calvary D7covers it Gall,
My Empast with its Dsin and Gstain;
My Cguilt and des - C7pair Jesus Gtook on Him there,
And Calvary D7covers it Gall.
[verse 2]
GThe stripes that He D7bore and the Dthorns that He Gwore
Told His G2mer - cy and A7love ever - Dmore;D7  
And my Gheart bowed in shame as I G7called on His Cname,
And GCalvary D7covers it Gall.
[chorus]
Calvary D7covers it Gall,
My Empast with its Dsin and Gstain;
My Cguilt and des - C7pair Jesus Gtook on Him there,
And Calvary D7covers it Gall.
[verse 3]
GHow matchless the D7grace, when I Dlooked on the Gface
Of this G2Je - sus, my A7crucified DLord;D7  
My re - Gdemption complete I then G7found at His Cfeet,
And GCalvary D7covers it Gall.
[chorus]
Calvary D7covers it Gall,
My Empast with its Dsin and Gstain;
My Cguilt and des - C7pair Jesus Gtook on Him there,
And Calvary D7covers it Gall.
[verse 4]
GHow bles - sed the D7thought, that my Dsoul, by Him Gbought,
Shall be G2His in the A7glo - ry on Dhigh;D7  
Where with Ggladness and song I'll be G7one of the Cthrong;
And GCalvary D7covers it Gall.
[chorus]
Calvary D7covers it Gall,
My Empast with its Dsin and Gstain;
My Cguilt and des - C7pair Jesus Gtook on Him there,
And Calvary D7covers it Gall.
