Calvary Came to Me
by II Genesis

I did not climb the hill on which my Savior died
Didn’t see the nails go through His hands, or the spear enter His side
Nor did I hear the soldiers yelling, or the mourner’s cries
Or see the clouds that rolled overhead and darkened up the skies
No, I never went to Calvary. Calvary came to me

Chorus:
It flew on wings of grace, transcending time and space
I can feel its sweet embrace, for even now it’s in this place
And it won’t let go, this one truth I know
Even though His death I did not see, still I know I’m free
No, I never went to Calvary. Calvary came to me

I did not hang upon a cross and feel my Savior’s pain
Never felt a whip against my skin, as He did again and again
And a royal crown of thorns was never placed upon my head
Nor was I beaten and abused and then just left for dead
No, I never went to Calvary. Calvary came to me

(Chorus 2x)

End:
Didn’t have to take a step; (didn’t have to take a step)
Didn’t have to die on a tree (didn’t die on a tree)
Didn’t even reach out my hand. Calvary came to me
