ALL THE WAY TO CALVARY- Performed by Clark Sisters
All the way to Calvary, He went for me
He went for me, He went for me
All the way to Calvary, He went for me
He died to set me free
Although I had so many many sins
Jesus took them all away
And He pardoned me
Although I had so many many sins
Jesus took them all away
And He pardoned me
All the Way to Calvary. H.J. 172, At/B5.
1. Oh I had so many, many sins,
But He took them all away when He pardoned me,
But He took them all away when He pardoned me.
CHORUS: All the way to Calvary He went for me.
He went for me, He went for me,
All the way to Calvary He went for me,
And now He sets me free.
2. Oh, I had so many, many doubts,
But He took them all away when He pardoned me.
3. Oh, I had so many, many fears,
But He took them all away when He pardoned me.
